Nope. To be fair, though, I think the Fall tasting was September 11th and was launching about 27 products. Usually the Winter tasting is November, if I'm remembering correctly.

Was in my local store and saw them starting to put out the Christmas gift sets.

Had a deja vu from last year, first glance didn't see many and nothing new.

Hope there is more to come.

When Greg puts up the list is when we get the invite, which is usually around a month before the tasting. He's pretty quick; when the message goes out, I'm sure he'll post it.
