| A 2001 Schrader would be great to try; infantcidal as it may be. Actually this wine is made to be consumed while young. I was told that by the horses ass... uh... horses mouth Thomas Browne the winemaker.
This stuff gets my vote. | | | |

Randy,
You CAN'T come  .
Why??? He's bringing the chardonnay.
Sloan... not Wigginton!
Wigginton can come. Sloan needs more permits and I don't want to screw that up.
I see and agree 100% | | | |

| Maybe a 750 of the 2001 Schrader RBS or MX and a mag of the 2002.
Anyone try the latest release of the Carlisle PS? Blows away any PS I've had in the past. I'll bring that too. | | | |

| I made the reservation Monday. Who knows how many at 6:30pm @ The Grill On the Alley.
There is a mid-size convention in town that week and both the Wine Room and the Private Room are already booked but if one of the two cancels we can have the Wine Room. Oher than that we'll just have to mingle with the peons at a crummy old regular table.
Players include:
CWG
Randy W
GFD
davidn
+++++++++++++++++
Maybe list:
JW1
SFWine
Eric L.
Let me know guys. | | | |

| I'll pick you up at 4:15.
We can all meet at my home at 4:45.
That'll give us just over an hour to kill off a couple bottles of Krug or Dom. | | | |

I've got a killer sparkler that I'd love to bring - 1982 Salon. But it's in my fridge and doubt it would travel well..... | | | |

CWG, is there anything you haven't had and would like to try? Maybe I'll have something. | | | |

| Hmmm... I need to bring something or two. How about picking from the following:
White:
2002 Kistler Chardonnay (pick any vineyard)
2003 Kongsgaard Rousanne
2003 Aubert 
2001 Rieussec (DavidN's favorite)
Red:
1997 David Arthur
1999 Araujo
2002 Araujo Altagracia
2002 Foley Claret
2002 Pride Reserve Cab
2002/2003 Pride reserve sangiovese
2002 Realm Tempest or Tokalon
Of course, I have a ton of 2001 cabs, but I'm not allowed to touch them according to my sponsor
I also have some 2003 Saxum that might be fun to sacrifice on the altar of the infants...
Looking forward to this, might be fun despite the folks attending  | | | |

I'd say I would open my The Judge buy you two other SJ guys are red-wine bigots.
Uh, yeah, that's me. The guy that entered the white that should have won if it weren't for some wierd sweet wine is a red-wine bigot. The guy that has several hundred bottles of white wine is a red-wine bigot. Those bottles ended up in my cellar by accident
