So Jaimetown, does that mean that Corduroy is now off-limits for week night offlines or do you think that something might be done with proper notice and planning. That was my one of my favorite places.
I will probably bring a Scholium Project wine (either the Scheria or Sylphs, depending on whether we need a white or a red).
I am guessing if we were to call and arrange everything ahead of time and take care to be excellent guests, they'd probably let us do what we did before. I mean, it's not like we'd each be lugging in 3 bottles per attendee (if we did, they'd be dragging us all out!!)... 
BTW, welcome to VC, cigarnv. Feel free to put your name out there to join in on any DC Crü fun.  | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |

| James,
I'll bring the 2002 Radio-Coteau Zinfandel Von Weidlich, providing I can find it in the clutter of boxes in my cellar. | | | |

| Well, I have not gotten official confirmation from Mrs. TJ yet, but the piece of info we were waiting on has come and I am pretty sure this means we will both be attending. Subject, of course, to a last minute change, we're both in. I have precious little Spanish wine, but could contribute a 1999 Clos mogador or a 2000 Numanthia, but am not sure either is presently ready or not. If these are not ready, I can always bring something else that is very nice.  | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |

| Hey guys, I've repeated this: You don't have to bring a Spanish wine - just bring something really kick-@ss. Otherwise, I might have to reconsider bringing my Billecart vintage bubbly.  | | | |

| JT...
I'm still at a loss for what to bring....as you Crudites know, I swim deeply in the pinot pool....pinot and Spanish food?? Why not! I'll probably bring a 2003 Alcina Sangiacomo Vineyard PN and/or a 2002 Rivers Marie Summa Old Vines PN. | | | |
