The fulfilment company has not done well: you are doubtless disappointed; I am angry.

If you haven’t yet sent an email (sales@ the website), please do, and a replacement will follow.

[Roy Hersh]

I hope sales have exceeded expectations.

I have had a number of requests to be kept informed if a 2nd edition or a 2nd printing were to be released. I told them (8-10 ppl) that it may not be anytime soon.

What say you sir?

[Julian D. A. Wiseman]

What say you sir?

Nearly sold out. There is some stock, but not sure precisely how much. The few remaining will be sold in early 2019. But those in a hurry might try the wine merchant Lea & Sandeman, which bought many copies for subsequent sale.

my copy arrived today and while the packaging is minimal it was in perfect condition

[Moses Botbol]

Saw a copy of the book; very nice. Still waiting to receive my copies.

Mine just arrived...damaged. End of "box" was open, held together with rubber bands. Cover wrinkled and bottom a little dirty.

Mine just arrived...damaged.

The fulfilment company had one job to do, and did not do it well. I’m also angry. Please send me an email with pictures that I may forward to the fulfilment company, which will then send fresh and retrieve broken.

I have been told of an anonymous American phoning the fulfilment company. Please say whether that was you.

[John M.]

No--I did not call. Saw no reason to at this point in time.

[Luc Gauthier]

[Eric Ifune]

Mine arrived in Las Vegas in acceptable condition.

[Bert VD]

sooooo... who will write the follow up about the 'smaller' producers? Crasto, Passadouro, Borges, Junco, DR, Barros, Vallado, Burmester, Churchill, Pacheca, Pocas, Vieira De Sousa, Portal, Vale Meao, Alves De Sousa, Rocha, Duorum and so on

[Moses Botbol]

My first copy arrived. Box was partially shredded and open on one end, but somehow the book was in fine condition. Waiting on the 2nd copy.

I thought there would be more pictures of the bottles, but it was fun reading while sipping a '60 Taylor. Great 1st edition.

I’m pleased the book is safe. Even as I am livid with the fulfilment company.

Got an email this morning that a replacement will be delivered Friday and I am to send back the original. Well done Julian---excellent response.

Still waiting on the 2nd copy.

Still waiting on the 2nd copy.

Most people who had multiple orders going to the same address had their orders merged. I failed to do that for you — slightly different wording fooled my algorithm. I hope it comes soon, and undamaged.

[Martin Peeters]

Dear Julian,

Today I picked up the second copy. Totally in perfect order!! It could survive a drop from 30,000 feet. Well done.

Have a very nice Christmas and a splendid New Year!
