How long were a few of yall on Macdonald's waitlist or Roy Piper's?

I found some forum posts from a few years ago saying people have been on for 7-10 years waiting
Macdonald's about 8 years. I'd totally forgotten about it. Haven't met Alex in person, but we've emailed and I've sent him some wine.

Piper, no wait list at all, uncertain there was one. Just emailed him, told him what we're doing wine-wise around here and ordered some wine.


Weird, I've been on the Piper wait list for years. I get newsletters but never any option to buy wine.

Email him and ask him to move
You onto the allocation list.

How was it? I have a 2010 and a couple of 2017s on hand. Can't recall the exact mix of those 3, but 2 of the 3 are the Merlot centric blends.

You beat me to it. Yep. He'll prioritize people that actually care and reach out.

Good info on Piper. I'll shoot him a note. I have also been getting the newsletter.

On Macdonald, I figured. I'll hopefully get offered before I'm 50!

Crazy

Honestly if you're on the list and signed up within the last 5 years you will probably never get an allocation. They have almost 100 % re purchase and they are not getting enough additional fruit to add many new members

I signed up in 2016…fingers crossed lol

When I talked to Alex last, he said they were still working through people who signed up in 2014.

Ha! I get that.

Father Time has to help though, right? Gotta be a lot of older guys that are buyers that when they pass their kids aren't into wine, don't have the income, or just aren't that passionate about it.

Speaking of Piper, I just popped the 2014 to enjoy with steak frites tonight.

Oh, Cade. Not wine related but I got some coffee at "T & Sons" yesterday when I went up there for a party.
