Can't get the frikkin Dunn wines here in Chicago! At least, not the places I've searched. I've even tried using my last name as an incentive to wine merchants, but to no avail!

Caymus: Cag is underrated. Conundrum is overrated (too much Muscat in it for me, even though I think it's only aboutr 5%). Relatively inexpensive, though.

Cpdunn99,
Contact Dunn directly. If Illinois allows direct shipping I'm sure they'd sell you some. If not them probably many internet merchants would as well. Try Winebid.com, there are often great auction deals on high end wines. Good luck!

Will do, Jond! Thanks for link! Several months ago, I did try to find a phone number, web site, e-mail address for Dunn, but failed. I'll try to link you provided, though, and see what that leads to.

Cpdunn -

My recollection is that you can only buy Dunn on release via mail order direct from the winery only. At least it used to be that way. Therefore, you have to get on their mail order distribution list. I'm leaving for Oakland tommorow on business and then to Vegas for CES. It shouldn't be too difficult for me to pick up the Dunn contact info while I'm in Northern Calif. Expect me to e-mail you the contact info for Dunn next week when I return.

Tenniswino,
Dunn is sold through regular distribution channels, I work for a fine wine wholesaler in DC. There also is a mailing list. It really shouldn't be that hard to find, the market for high end Cali wine is really drying up.
