I got my letter today too. They upped my offer to 19 bottles. Not going to happen. I usually buy everything under $40, maybe one or two up to $45.

Every year you take your chances.

By the way I've got a couple of friends who have been on the waiting list 2 years and are still waiting. Must be nice to be a winery that knows it doesn't have to worry about selling out.

This is the first time I could order
after waiting almost 2 years. How do
they determine how much you can buy?

  No idea. But it seems that the longer you're on the list and continue to buy your allottment you get offered more and broader selections.
  
  This is my third year. I've bought my entire allotment the last two years. I've got a friend who always buys the more expensive ones that I don't want.
  
  I remember the first year they didn't offer any of the expensive ones to me. And I believe the allotment was 8 or 10 bottles.
  
  Last year I was allotted 12 which included the better stuff. This year I'm allotted 19 and it's across the board. I'll probably only by 12. Mike is right, my Wife and friends always smile when I open a Turley.
