Drew and Rae are a great example of only putting out wine of quality when it deserves it.
Unfortunately, making wine is farming and farming is dependent on the weather.

Whatever they released I am looking forward to trying it!

Yeah, only just opened the mailer last night and was surprised to read there was none of either reserve. But yes, I certainly admire them for only putting out what's worth putting out. I'll probably get a mixed dozen this year with 6 eclipse and 2 of each of the others.

I must admit, I've got a lot of noon wine sitting at home so it's almost a relief not to have to order too much this year. The cellar is bursting as it is.
Cheers,
Kris
