i also have a spare bedroom, 4 reclining chairs and some couches and floor space if things get a little hectic. My wife can also drive people too/from the railroad station as she does not drink. So those from NJ or a tad further please consider as well!

i can also do this non weather permitting indoors. How about if we plan for mid October say Saturday, October 16th on Long Island at my place. I can bar-be-cue, cook or we can order in. I will toss a 2007 dow 375 ml in to the ring. While I have around 100 stems I only have around 20 or so port stems...

i have a few 375's of 07 port (graham, taylor, fonseca at a minimum) if need be I can open my house up for tasting if done during semi-nice weather (backyard or dining room)

francos 203-966-9571 http://www.francoswine.com/home.asp has 10 half bottles left at a price of 43.99 per botgtle and they will ship to NY
IF I had more $$$ I would have purchased all 24 instead of 14

I received email from wine shop Stew Leonards in Farmingdale about a upcoming port tasting on Long Island. If anyone is interested I can sweeten the pot as i life within 10 minutes of Stew's and would be more than willing to crack open some port (or maderia or even dare I say nonfortified wines) and...

would love to attend if space permits, I can bring a few cheesecakes for desert and a bottoe or two (or source a bottle or two)

SO there is thing a few wine critics made up called open thatbottle night. Basically its an execuse to open up some very nice bottles instead of waiting for a special occasion that may/may not happen. It is not a port only event but was thinking of ending night with a bottle of 77 fonseca and or a d...

I can secure one or two 75 grahams for around 140 a piece, would like to attend and bring one of these with me if allowed/welcomed.

Will run date past wife but i think this should work for us and thanls for invite.

While I wish I could attend my employer has other plans for me that weekend. Sorry guys and I am so jealous UGH

I puchased the 14 bottles for 300 (plus shipping) Thought this was a good deal and the 375's will provide a nice window to what their bigger brothers and sisters will be like.

Told the guy 400 was little high, he dropped price on his listing to 350, I just asked him if he would take 280 for them. Hopefully...

Do you think this is a good deal
2003 Croft- 2 bottles
2000 Dow- 3 bottles
1997 Dow- 2 bottles
1997 Fonseca- 1 bottle
2003 Gould Campbell- 2 bottles
2000 Graham- 1 bottle
1997 Graham- 2 bottles
1997 Taylor- 1 bottle

All of them are 375's in size 400 for all 14 bottles.

If you want I can pick up a cheesecake or two (or three) again if you guys want, any preference on flavor? just a couple to choose from.. Classic Armeretto Banana Blueberry Cannoli Cream Caramel Swirl Chambord (Rasberry) Cherry Chocolate Chocolate Chip Chocolate/Rasberry Chocolate Swirl Harvey's Bri...

I usually taste blind so doing it sighted is a nice change for me
gman any time you want me in your neck of the woods?

If adopting a bottle or space becomes an issue I can bow out (which would be slightly odd cause at one point in time I was hosting this event)
Sorry for confusion and headaches guys.

Fridays are generally better for me, I can 1)drink more 2) stay out later and 3)not have to go into work the following the day.

Count me in, think think I may need to adopt or source though. I will keep my eye out for something very old and or odd though.

Roni (wife spells it Roni nor Ronnie (thats how my mom spells it) Freud aint got anything on me) will not be attending, just me. I can adopt what ever bottle needs to be adopted.
Gman do you want to take train over together?

I can confirm I am attending an adopting
Sorry about my place, once everything is done I will have a cellar stocking party. (joke)
I will have all over for a meal and drink though, looking forward to Saturday.

Construction is taking a tab bit longer than anticipated (they were supposed to be done by end of July). We still do not have a kitchen, a bathroom, etc. Those should all be in place within the coming weeks. However since the kitchen, bathroom and basement cannot be set up all the dishes, furniture,...

I do not have port from 83/85 however I could secure a bottle if given the house and year needed.

WHile my house is not large by any stech of the imagination I would be more than happy to have any and all people who want to sleep it off/crash for a few hours to do so. I have 2 spare bedrooms and hopefully couches on main floor and in basement by time of tasting. We can also pick up or drop off p...
