The wine front has reviewed them. Without giving the secret away, they were well received. Have not checked Roger's website but he normally publishes critics notes there-worth a look.
I will get a dozen.

I know I'm not on the long term mail order list, but am on his "regular" mail order list.
Haven't seen this year's offer... anyone else in the same boat? I know Roger mentioned he offered them first to his most loyal customers first but anyone else in the same boat as me?

Right, I read that before too but wasn't sure if that's when his wine gets released/sent out or emails get sent out.... Thanks!

Whilst I appreciate his wines are as scarce as hen's teeth, is it possible to visit the winery? (Website appears silent on the matter).

Sure Mark, arrange a date and time and bring an interesting bottle for us to drink.

Fortunate enough to have tried both now. The Simpatico is a pearler, popped and poured but huge concentrated wine, only been buying since 2011, but I think the best one I've had yet, loved it. The Symphony was a bit lighter and more refined after the Simpatico, but given a bit or air/time really comes into it's own, good times ahead!
Great wines, now up to 8% of my cellar and have taken the number 1 spot

Roger, you're on!
I'll bring something along. Will have to compromise, as there's not much English Shiraz, so it may have to be something from the Northern Rhône.

Mark,
Why would I want you to bring a Shiraz? I am swimming in it.
Anything interesting.

Noted! I'll bring something far removed.
