I'll not be opening the Reisling yet. Maybe on arrival or 30 seconds before we taste it.

Sorry I cannot make it - need to squeeze in a visit to Montilla Moriles next week.
Happy to donate/send the Toro Albala 1993 PX to someone for the tasting.

Sorry to hear Tony. I suspect we're going to be ok for bottles so don't feel the urge to donate.

As the list has 8 (with only 6 confirmed with food orders), I've told the B&F so we may get assigned a smaller room. If someone is able to directly reach Ian or pommy to nudge them, that would be excellent.

Apologies for my tardiness Zak but just to reconfirm that I will be attending along with a bottle of Quinoa do Mourao 30 year Tawny (plus I will have Tony’s bottle-above).

As for food order:
Truffle Mac n cheese
Steak mushroom and claret pie with fries (looks like it comes with green beans)

Thanks!

No worries. I'm considering my bottles as donations and with Tony's bottle, I can just put you down for an adoption. How do you want your steak cooked?

[pommy42]

That is amazing thank you so so much ! Rare please, not quite moo-ing but not far off!

I have a very dear friend coming from Geneva - can we squeeze one more guest and an additional bottle per chance?

Let me confirm with the B&F.

[akzy]

I've put in a preliminary placemat on the first page. Quite tricky when very few wines have previous placemat precedence. Relatively easy to change things if requested.
Please can someone check? Additionally, may someone print?

Thanks Julian. Should be publically viewable now.

This is fine. Please can you provide their initials and I'll add to the mats. Given Tony's generous donation, I'll place them down for adoption of that.

Given sherry, tokaji and perhaps 30YO tawny (don't shoot me), I have asked for some ice buckets.

[pommy42]

That is amazing thank you so much.
Chris West (CW) - there should be a bottle of 1993 coming too - Ironstone Pressing (aussie red - Grenache, Shiraz, Mourvedre 15%)

CW food -
Ardennes pâté
Sirloin steak, medium rare
skinny fries

Thank you - will get them added and update the placemats.

This has been arranged so no need to worry.

I will aim to be there for 5pm.

Just doing some cellar management and found three bottles of "Rioja Bordon Reserva 1993 - Bodegas Franco" which I'd forgotten about. Will bring one with me.

This was purchased from Laithwaites two or three years, and I think was producer library stock, so hopefully should be in good condition.

I'm aiming to be there 1730ish.

[flash_uk]

I should have mentioned - I have a surprise extra bottle coming too.

Still time to turn the placemats into 6 glasses per page??

I'll see what I can do.

Enjoy tonight everyone. Sorry not to be there with you all.

Post lots of pictures in the review thread for those of us who can’t be there!

[pommy42]

Unfortunately the - Ironstone Pressing (aussie red - Grenache, Shiraz, Mourvedre 15%) is stuck with a courier so will be MIA tonight! =(
