I'm looking forward to tomorrow night! I've got a 2002 Oregon Pinots and my current favorite Oregon Chardonnay - oh yeah, and a number of beers!

I've still got to figure out the Pinot and perhaps a white.  I think I know what the Napa Cab(s) will be.

Also looking forward to tomorrow night. I'm moving kind of slow right now as I bought food poisoning from a Chinese restaurant on Monday. Should be (almost) 100% by tomorrow. Will be bringing a 2000 Littorai Hirsch and a 2004 Freeman Akiko PN.

I've had that 2000 Littorai Hirsch recently at their caves. my mouth is already salivating it was so good; and if my Truchot Charmes doesn't kick it's butt you are already in for my wine of the night. ;)

Randy, I am going to quiz you and see whether you actually know what it (Merlot, not Cab) is and will blind you all on it.

jeeze, I'm glad I checked this thread! I almost totally forgot about this dinner. I am still in, but *may* be only one - Teri has been feeling spotty lately, so I'm going to have to play it by ear. Hopefully she'll join us.

As for old Nebbiolo ;), I let this slip up on me and don't have much standing up, but I do have a (67?) Spanna and a 67 Villadora Barolo, I'll bring one or the other.

Eric,

No worries, I was joking anyhow, but not about being disappointed in missing that dinner though. See you tonight.

Darn, I wish I would have seen this as I would have been able to attend. So how was the food (and the beers)?

Skwid, I thought the food was very good, although the soup we had to start was a little spicy (hot). That did provide a nice segue to trying the beers. I'm still in town until tomorrow morning. PM me if you want to try some beer!

Duke, PM sent.

Thanks for everyone who came. Nothing like having the restaurant to ourselves! Skwid, too bad you couldn't join us. Next time!
