[QUOTE="gazzab, post: 2339285, member: 63778"] In relation to Winestar, I was a frequent poster on their very active forum, surprised it shut down, for memory or suspicion some exchanges got very personal. I attended quite a few of their wine dinners. I know Bert but not well, never had an issue with buying wine from him, and still buy occasionally. Discounting is a fact of life, at least you can normally work out which wine he is discounting. It is certainly better to be a wine buyer than producer/retailer. At least we have multiple sources for buying. I also fell out with prominent retailer and boycotted them for a few years but their associated bistro is very good and occasionally some good wine deals so figuratively bit my tonge and still buy there occasionally. Life is to short to bear grudges and miss out on some good stuff. Of interest a lot of these discounted wines have huge RRP for what is a wine well below their station in life. [/QUOTE]
