NEW Arrivals - "June"

I put quotes around "June" because we are once again victims to the labor union commies in France. Longshoremen in all French ports have been on strike since late April. This container is being forced to leave from a non-French port, and the closest available port while containers pile up even in Antwerp is Rotterdam. Vessels from R'dam only go as far as Oakland on the west coast, and this container could very well spend a couple of weeks there, waiting for its transport to be "arranged." While workers in America can only dream of the cradle to grave benefits and union power enjoyed by their French counterparts, we will have to content ourselves with supplying another group of superb French wines for the thirsty masses!
