I'd love a side hustle. I don't have any skills though. I guess I could freelance at making people spreadsheets. Is that a thing?

The fires are a bit of a conundrum - I haven't tasted any impacted wines yet, but generally plan on drinking any potentially impacted wines while younger.

Have not read up on the consensus but in general, I'm passing on Nor Cal 2017 wines (although I would have bought Scarecrow or SE or other truly cult wines if I was on those lists).

So, with smoke taint plus whatever the crazy tariffs we see on French wine I expect to be happily working through my cellar and not buying as much this year!

There is some website for exactly that. Folks put up there skills and rates then get contracts via the website.

I use Fuckwork myself.

Old school Napa cab, just hitting its stride. 2010 was cool and wet and this is on the more restrained and floral side for Stagecoach, which is known for blockbuster wines.

Larkmead released today but think 3k on wine in one day is my limit.

You know, times like these are what friends are for. I'll buy your Scarecrow at cost so you can free up cash for Larkmead.

Glad my e-bros have my back!

The Last Bottle mystery cab was, as I had hoped, the 2016 GKG at 50% off the usual $140 sticker. Scored a case. Noice.
