| | I'm looking forward to tomorrow night! I've got a 2002 Oregon Pinots and my current favorite Oregon Chardonnay - oh yeah, and a number of beers! | |

| I've still got to figure out the Pinot and perhaps a white. I think I know what the Napa Cab(s) will be.  | |

| | Also looking forward to tomorrow night. I'm moving kind of slow right now as I bought food poisoning from a Chinese restaurant on Monday. Should be (almost) 100% by tomorrow. Will be bringing a 2000 Littorai Hirsch and a 2004 Freeman Akiko PN. | |

| I've had that 2000 Littorai Hirsch recently at their caves. my mouth is already salivating it was so good; and if my Truchot Charmes doesn't kick it's butt you are already in for my wine of the night. ;)
Randy, I am going to quiz you and see whether you actually know what it (Merlot, not Cab) is and will blind you all on it. | | | |

| jeeze, I'm glad I checked this thread! I almost totally forgot about this dinner. I am still in, but *may* be only one - Teri has been feeling spotty lately, so I'm going to have to play it by ear. Hopefully she'll join us.
As for old Nebbiolo ;), I let this slip up on me and don't have much standing up, but I do have a (67?) Spanna and a 67 Villadora Barolo, I'll bring one or the other. | | | |

| Eric,
No worries, I was joking anyhow, but not about being disappointed in missing that dinner though. See you tonight. | | | |

| | Darn, I wish I would have seen this as I would have been able to attend. So how was the food (and the beers)? | | | |

| | Skwid, I thought the food was very good, although the soup we had to start was a little spicy (hot). That did provide a nice segue to trying the beers. I'm still in town until tomorrow morning. PM me if you want to try some beer! | |

| | Thanks for everyone who came. Nothing like having the restaurant to ourselves! Skwid, too bad you couldn't join us. Next time! | |
