Plus they are only buying the Las Rocas brand, not the winery, and the agreement indicates Eric Solomon will still be directing the blending.

I think you described it well, and concisely too.
And FWIW, those are pretty much my feelings about Las Rocas too. With the addition that, in the nature of things, it tends to be wildly inconsistent.
Thanks for the background, Victor.
