fine opportunity to thank you. So, thank you for&nbsp;this most beautiful&nbsp;partnership. You may think it is great to have a friendly and trustworthy&nbsp;nose on the streets of Wine Country, but we think it is the best to have you, a wine lover, as far away as Germany even (Hi Michael), trusting our palates and relying on us to find you the best there is of the unknown. We all know it is easy to sell wine that has a name and a reputation, but our M.O. is to find what not too many people know about, first-of course, and get it into your hands so that in the following vintage, you are set with an allocation through us, long before the masses have even heard of the wines. That is a crazy premise for a wine shop in the dead-center of Wine Country. Let s take the difficult job of finding what nobody knows about and sell it! The flip-side to that is knowing that we have something that possibly no one or only a few actually have. As long as our history with you (and we know you are out there reading and judging us before you place your first order) has proven successful with recommendations that have met or exceeded your standards and expectations, we remain a welcomed email offering in your inbox fit for another shipment across country or a stop-off while in the Valley to try something new.<br> <br> And so, as our business continues to grow, and yet, remain the same where M.O. is concerned, we think it is time for the BEST OF 2009 from Acme Fine Wines. This is a list of First Releases in 2009 that have helped to make ACME, and you, very happy. We did our part in finding the new releases that we thought would knock your socks off and you trusted us enough to buy them and you saw for yourselves that these wines are top of the heap. The list is not in any particular order according to&nbsp;quality or favorites. Some are still available; some are long gone, but the GREAT news is the SECOND vintage is just around the corner. If you would like us to make sure you have the appropriate quantities set aside prior to hearing directly from us in&nbsp;our First Right of Refusal format, just let us know and your wish will be granted.<br> <br> <strong>THE BEST OF& ..</strong><b><br> <br> <strong>FIRST RELEASES IN 2009</strong><br> <br> <strong>Matthew D.
