Let's see... If Dan takes the bullet train at 5:13, he gets to the station at 6:10. Any of us can pick him up, get to Grill by 6:20. We then have from 6:30 to 9 to consume as many bottles as inhumanly possible. The return trip is slower; he can catch the 9:06 train, be back in SF at 10:42. On the return trip, he'll have plenty of time to sober up and come up with a good story for Stephanie 
I would love to taste the Judge, and decide when I will open my bottle
I'm willing to give Dan a lift down, if he's interested. | | | |

| | Damn, this is sounding really fun. I'd try to figure our how to get to the south bay except the next morning at 8:45 I have to appear before the Napa County Planning Commission for my winery land use permit. Guess it wouldn't be good to be missing, late, or hung over. | |

Sloan... not Wigginton!
Wigginton can come. Sloan needs more permits and I don't want to screw that up. | | | |

Is there any winery that is currently popular that anyone hasn't tried?
Outpost
Carlisle
Anomoly
Pax
Copain
QC
DA1147
2001 Harlan Maiden
Schrader
That 2001 David Arthur Merlot that he only did 200 (?) mags
2002 Sean Thackery Orion
Any Pax is good.
2001 Maiden would be good.
Which Schrader? Post 2000 NO.
The Swift Orion is always interesting.
I love Anomaly.
Bring what you like CWG! Anything will be great.
Bring some of that new $10 Duckhorn... The new Ten Buck Duck. | | | |
