I'm not usually one for Cal-Ital wines, but the Caparones sound interesting (especially at that price).
So we'll assume your Syrah doesn't come in at 16% ?
Hopefully you'll make NY a stop on your wine road trip (do you still do that?) sometime after bottling your wine (one barrel doesn't sound like commercially available),

With such low alcohol who would buy it anyway. (me...)

David,
Funny thing . . .
There are 7 different folks making wine from exactly the same clone of syrah from the same vineyard in the same year - should make for an interesting retrospective - and Russell is making the lowest alcohol wine (13.7); who'd a thunk.

What about shipped direct from the winemaker?
If I understand the law correctly, I have to have a license to sell wine. I can make it for as long as I like prior to that.
Hence, if I decide to get a license in the future, whatever I have not given away of my 2007 will be for sale. If I don't, then give away is all that will ever happen.

Dream big, my friend.
