    Between that and the one on MBC, I'm guessing if you haven't heard yet, you sadly didn't win :slight_frown:

    I'm pretty certain that was a joke lol. Don't lose hope yet.

    It would be a hilarious twist of fate if HF won the auction for the bottle on MBC, found out the user then threw down a lifetime ban hammer

    Wow! Congrats.

    I wonder if they're rolling out or if it was one big batch at 11:30. Time to spend the rest of the day staring at my email I guess.

    No luck for me on the Cuvee, but planning my first trip up there soon anyway. Anyone have recommendations on (preferably dog friendly) places to stay in the area?

    If it were me with my dog, I’d get a room at Hotel VT in Burlington and just do a day trip to HF

    You could get a cabin (dog friendly) at Highland Lodge for much less than Hotel VT. That’s being close proximity to HF of course.

    Am I correct to assume that the bottle count is, probably, like 200-300 for Flora Cuvee?

    No, what a weird inference (I originally posted a sarcastic “yes” here but don’t want to set off alarms at HF accidentally).

    lol I had someone reach out to me and ask if I was willing to trade mine completely unprompted (I nicely said not at this time) and they were wondering about the bottle count, so it piqued my curiosity. I had no clue it would be considered a faux pas to ask (and still think that’s quite a stretch).

    Given its description I thought that this was something that would be knowledge to HF veterans, but I apologize if I’ve offended your sensibilities by referencing something that also gets mentioned in regards to the secondary market.

    Congrats on your lottery win. I also hope as you drink it, the bottle count is the last thing on your mind.

    I'm guessing it will not be on my mind, but thanks for your concern and the helpful responses to what was sincerely nothing but a curious question from someone wondering if another BA user had more info than I.
