Thoughts on LastBottle today?
Eh.

CT scores it at 89.3. At that price point I would like to see some higher scores.

Thanks for the response. For bottles at or around that price point or higher, what scores would you like to see?

Got my Last Bottle December marathon shipment in today.

Three bottles of Pleno 2015 Gran Reserva from Navarra; two bottles of 2018 cab franc from Lang & Reed in Napa; a 2019 Proprietor's Reserve from Petroni in Sonoma; and a 2018 Terroir Al Limit Terra de Cuques from Priorat.

It's like Christmas Day!

Good news, it's been about 6 weeks. Do they normally send tracking info? I got one bottle from them and no email that it was coming, it just showed up.

For the summer marathon, they usually communicate when the shipments will start going out via social media and email.

This time around, i just got an email from FedEx saying I had a delivery coming that needed to be signed for -- no notification from Last Bottle.

I don't have a formula and CT ratings can vary widely. And, CT in my opinion rates conservative, but I usually pass at less than 90 and like to see 93+ before dropping $100 on a bottle.

I got my LB marathon wines Tuesday when the wind chill was -25 here. They were nice and chilled!

I did get an email from them early last week that they were on the way, and then multiple emails from FedEx about when they'd be delivered.

I skipped today's offering. Seemed like the wine is probably well past its prime from reading the recent notes on CT.

I just received two LB shipments, one from the December marathon and one normal offering.

I didn't get emails/notifications for either. FedEx emailed my wife the tracking info, assume because our house address is under her account.

Not a big deal for us. But can see how that can be annoying for some.

Wine.com has an option for delivery at Walgreen's stores.

It's super easy -- you get an email that your wine has arrived and you have seven days to pick it up. None of this waiting around for hours to sign for a package that may or may not arrive.

Sounds like you need to get signed up for notifications from FedEx, I get texts and emails and can reschedule delivery as needed.

Yeah, that's what my wife has. Again, fine for us.

But every other place we order wine (or anything for that matter) from emails us before it ships, when it ships, usually during the shipment, and once it's been delivered. Odd to me that LB system doesn't send at least one email when the packing label is printed. htxag09, your order 123 shipment details are below...

Not hard to do...Especially like something for wine where you have to be present to sign for it.

I go that same cab franc . . .

2 Lang & Reed Cab Franc.
3 Rose & Arrow Pinot Noir Estate The Black Walnut Worden Hill Dundee Hills 2018
2 Strala Vineyards Proprietary Red Napa Valley 2018
1 Domaine Besson Chablis Vaudesir Grand Cru 2021
plus a few cheaper whites.

I shipped to FedEx. One time they didn't call me and sent it back and I still dont have the wine so be careful.
