Recently had 2 defective bottles of Valdicava Brunello (2010), which was sad because no one likes bad bottles and this was one of my favorites. The vendor gave us a credit for the third (still unopened) bottle even though I bought it 2 years ago. Nice show of goodwill by them given the elapsed time, but I am quite certain it was bad when received as it has been temp controlled since arrival.
This is a great thread, Rick! WE can't let it croak!

There is not much worse (maybe this should go in the first world problems thread) than opening a bottle and finding it is corked... Very glad to hear that the vendor has made good!
