šJUICY JURA DROPš

Whatās up winos,
At the time of writing it is T-minus four hours until the staff party. At the time of print it will have already happened, and Iāll probably crawling around the warehouse on my hands and knees like some kind of gremlin that washed up through a drain. Thatās a nice mental image, isnāt it? Pray for my swift recovery, plz. Iāll need all the help I can get.Ā
New arrivals are coming so thick and fast at the moment itās all we can do to keep up. Iāve recycled more cardboard in the last two weeks than any one human has ever done before. Seriously, I should be in the Guinness Book of World Records. Not sure they keep track of records that boring, but they really should.So, whatās new today? Possibly my most anticipated arrival of the year so far, and thatās a long list to be at the top of. Thatās right kids, Labet is here, and sheās hot, single and ready to mingle.
But wait, I hear you screaming at the Natty Boy website. Why canāt I just buy a single Labet, if sheās so single? Iām SO glad you asked. Letās talk politics.
If you arenāt already aware, Labet produces some of the most sought-after wines in this country (and in most countries), and as such, allocations are tight and tiny, and also as such, demand for them often sends prices skyrocketing. Weāre not about that. But weāre also not about random people who take advantage of our excellent SEO to find our shop, buy one bottle of Labet, and then disappear, never to be seen again. Weāre about loyalty, and about longevity, and about equality (I mean, equality in so far as that word can be used to apply to the people who can afford Labet). Iāve had this experience myself, shooting my shot in a wine shop in Paris, asking to buy Labet - the dude was like, um, Iāve literally never seen you before and Iām probably never going to see you again, so, no. Fair. Like him, weāre about distributing these wines in the fairest way possible, that allows the people (you) to get what you want (Labet) while also supporting your favourite neighbourhood wine shop (us) so we can keep bringing you the best of the best. So! In theseĀ Labet Party Packsįµį“¹Ā youāll get one bottle of that magical Jura juice, plus two ~mystery~ bottles, handpicked by us according to your exacting specifications. You might even discover a banging new producer. Talk about win win. You can, however, buy the Cremant and theĀ MacvinĀ as singles. Weāre SO GOOD TO YOU.
Also dropping today is a top-up from Labet alumniĀ Allante & Boulanger, IYKYK. If you donāt know, try and snag one of these before they disappear. Good luck tho. Think they sold out in less than two minutes last time. Itās quite possible theyāll already be gone by the time youāre reading this. If they are, I can only apologise, and invite you to be faster next time.Ā
Fear not, though. On the off chance that those are already gone, I doubt even our ravenous Natty Boy audience will have managed to snap up every single one of theseĀ new Chatillon winesĀ in the last two minutes. Chatillon is a certified ledge who plays crystal bowls and singing harps to his fermenting wines. Maybe not someone youād want to be stuck in a corner with at a party (or maybe you would) but you canāt deny the results. Check āem out, theyāre the real deal.Ā
If youāre more of a sparkle-head than a Jura fiend, youāll be mighty pleased to see weāve also dropped (not literally, thatād cost me a yearās rent) some new bottles fromĀ Jerome Prevost, which is about as elite as Champagne can get. Take out a second mortgage, itās worth it.
Enough treats for you today. More good sheet coming on Thurs, keep your eyes peeled and your finger on the refresh button.
Love u!
xoxo
