I still am waiting on wines from:
Short and OJeffso
I have everyone else's and it loking like a great line-up!
-------------
If there is anyone else out there interested in attending- let me know asap- we have some room left, but a couple of people want to possibly bring friends... and I want to give forumites one more chance before we fill it up- since so many of you originally expressed interest!!
Cheers and Thanks!

Hummm to go or not to go....

Ttepper- should I put you down as a maybe??

Maybe...I'll let you know soon..have to wait to hear from Kelly. Thanks

I'm betting this will go down as one of the all-time great dinners and not just because of the people, who comprise an unbeatable group. There are just so many good Zinfandels that we might not find a wine score below the 90's. tt, I'd suggest we drive out together, except that my wife and I will be visiting her father the next morning.

I think Ttepper should bring his mom

Nice skwid...So Kelly and I are in for Zin. Jazin, I will PM you the zin that I would like to bring..Looking foward to it.

TTepper- Yay! Glad you are joining us... we are at 20 pp right now,
Board-O- I am working on making this a great Zin line up! I don't think anyone will be disappointed!

I am in,

A few issues I have,

I don't know if I'm one or two.
My wife does not drink wine, and she is affraid she'll feel out of place
I feel bad for her because I know where she's coming from, it could feel a bit awkward when everyone is talking wine and you can't participate.

Also, I don't have any Zins right now that anyone would consider mind blowing or rare. Frankly, I don't drink wines of that pedigree very often. At the same time, I don't want to let down any of my fellow forumites with a bottle that would be considered as less then spectactular .

I am very excited to meet you all.

TCK

tck - Have no fear. If my wife comes (which she's planning on), she doesn't drink either.

I'll keep you updated.

Also - definitely don't worry about what bottle you bring. EVERYTHING is a learning experience.

And don't worry - we will talk about other things than wine!

TCK and Short- If both of your wives are not drinking- then maybe you could get together and each bring a bottle of the same wine!
...Let me know!

TCK -

I've got a great idea. I'll shoot you a PM.

jazin -

You mean between TCK and I we'll bring two bottles (but the same bottling), right?

the great thing about zins is that for $20-25 you can get excellent wine.

Jazin -

Never mind. No need to clarify. TCK and I will work it out offline.

ojeffso -

Does that mean you're not bringing your bottles of Martinelli Jackass Hill?

Short- yes, to clarify- you and TCK would each bring one bottle of the same wine. Thats all you would need to bring...but if by chance you have a dessert wine you want to bring- feel free- only have a couple so far.
We don't have OJeffso's Zin yet- anxiously awaiting it, though.

i will be giving my list to jazin tonight. in honor of board-o, i was thinking about some old zins i have from the 1970's.

Are you sure they'll be ready to drink?

This is where we insert the the graemlin with one finger raised at ojeffso.

Board-O,
Which finger???
The "you're number 1" finger.... or the other one?
