| I learned from DdB that tjaehnigen will be in Atlanta on the week of 3/22/04. We're hosting a small informal dinner party at our Dunwoody home. Hopefully our labrador retriever will antagonize TJ into becoming a "dog person." Target time is around 7:00. If you're interested in joining us, please send a PM. Size of the party will determine the menu. I'm going to use the event as an excuse to pull a cork in a bottle of 1998 Shafer Hillside.  | | |

| I am looking forward to this. GZN, I am very appreciative of your hosting this. I mentioned to Ddb that I'd be able to restaurant it as needed since I'd have a per diem to spend. But this will be even more kewl.
Grazie!
PS: Mucho appreciatto to Ddb for carting me to/fro the event, too! | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |

My bro has a big vanilla Lab named Marshall, aka Marshy, and he's a great dog. But, cats rule.  | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |

| DdB -- although we probably won't finalize the menu until the weekend before, I can almost promise you that it will include some juicy beef, maybe lamb chops -- so think big reds. I might even forego the grill and cook some cajun food -- think bigger reds! | | | |

| Excellent! I was thinking of bring something Spanish - perhaps a Numanthia or one of the better Priorats. Should work perfectly. | | | |

| Yeah, the 2000 Numanthia is definitely either shut down, or well on its way there. Had it in January and it was disappointing compared to when I had it last October.
Hmmmm, makes me think about what to bring though. hmmmm | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |

| Nope, but I am game to try. I think someone mentioned the 2001 is also quite excellent. | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |
