Hold

A touch of frost in April dampened yields a bit, then the humid summer and high mildew pressure meant extra vigilance in the vines. Warm days and cool nights maintained acidity, with the groundwork laid along the way for explosive and fast-moving botrytis. The wines are vibrant and fresh in feel; the best vintage since 2014

WTSO has 4 bottles for sale today, but I only see 1 of them. They have the Amarone della Valpolicella Riserva 2019 Famiglia Cielo Amaregi, Encantado Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2024, the Viñedos y Bodegas Pablo Gran Viu Finca Santiaga 2004, and the Paradiso di Cacuci Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Hey Jimmy, don't mean to be piling on, but both wtso entries here appear to be two days out of date. The flash deal has changed several times since the Pearl of the South and they've had the collector's drop turned off during their anniversary sale. (My wife would be LHAO to see me doing this, I just to give her tons of sh*t when SHE was a QA. 😁) Cheers, j

Fixed! And added the flash sale wines. Tell your wife you’d make a damn good QA 😂
