| | Now are we making this California Cab night, or are other wines good to go (i.e. Bordeaux and meritage blends)? | | | |

| Ok Corkage, I'll take that to mean that JohnnyB is a definite rather than a tentative (I haven't been listing tentatives). JohnnyB, please correct if this is wrong. That will mean that we're officially full. It is a long time till September 24th though so if any tentatives would like to attend, please let me know and I'll add a waitlist. I would expect that there will be some cancellations between now and then. I'll send my address and directions to everyone.

Jaimetown, I think that Meritages or Bordeaux would be fine. A bottle of Champagne or a dessert wine will work as well. | | | |

| Sounds like fun! I wish we still lived in DC to attend, but now I will have to start another cru down here in Jo-burg. We will see how South African wines turn out.

| | Mrs. TJ and I are presently more for sure available for this if two spots open up. We'll try to keep the date open with that hope in mind. | |

| TJ, I will check with everyone in a few weeks to make sure that all are coming. If you know what wine you are bringing, send me a PM or post. That will help me decide what to pull out of the cellar. We should have plenty of wine so couples shouldn't feel like they need to bring 2 bottles.

| | Well, I was a tentative, but Karen has something planned for that day and DW Jr. and I have to be out of the house all day. So I figure we'll find something to do that day. | | | |

| | Jaimetown, talk about a good start! I am planning to serve an '84 Phelps Backus cab, an '84 Diamond Creek Gravelly Meadow and an '85 Forman. I may add another '84/'85 cab. Try as we might, I don't think that we'll be able to match the Boston crowd. | | | |

| OK, so if I am in, I need to sort out bringing a cab or two, right? No problemo. Not sure what yet though.
Dave -- a couple of questions --
--What is the start time of this fine event?
--Do you need us to bring anything? Such as cheese or something else?
Thanks!!  | |

| | TJ, glasses! We will need extra glasses at this event I fear. If you would like to bring some cheese that would be great, but certainly not required. I will, of course, need assistance grilling the steaks and keeping the Big Green Egg at 800 degrees or so. Start time is 6:30. I think that one bottle per couple will give us plenty of wine, especially with our solos bringing multiple bottles! | | | |

| | Stems we can do. Cheese we'll probably maybe bring! And we'll be there by 6:30! Looking forward to it! | |
