Who is to print the placemats?

[CPR 1]

Draft of the placemats, images having been added to first post. Please check people. Please check Ports. Please check Port-people matching. Please check everything else.

If not too late could we adjust the placemats so that the 07 and 07 Capella are side by side, and the same for the two 11? (Move 05 to top right, and then the pairs below)

I can do that .... I'll print them Tuesday morning

If you can make the tweak George suggests that would be great

CPR = Charles, whose tweak is done. Is there another fix that I’m missing?

No that's me mixing names up !

I plan to be there 4:30 ish to start setting up ...

Others welcome to join ....

[Alex Bridgeman]

For logistical reasons, Harry and I are swapping the 1994 and 1995. I'm now bringing the 1994.

Justin and I will probably arrive around 17.00-17.30 to help set up.

[mcoulson]

I've printed the place settings and tested my port

[flash_uk]

V91 double decanted at 1345. Lots of fruit on the nose, good colour.

ETA around 1700 for me.

[Alex Bridgeman]

V94, V97 and V11 were all double decanted between 10.30 and 11.00.

[winesecretary]

V92 double decanted at 0730, to the sound of the cat complaining about his second breakfast being delayed thereby.

[idj123]

V90 decorked at 10pm yesterday and then double decanted at 9 this morning. ETA 6pm.

Hope you have a splendid evening really looking forward to hearing what you all think

[M.Charlton]

A splendid evening, indeed! Thanks Martin for organising, and to everyone who attended for a fun evening. I’ll post my full notes later this week/early next.

[M.Charlton]

V05 decanted at 1515.

[winesecretary]

Martin, thank you for organising. An evening which confirmed that 1994 Vesuvio really is all that.

[Glenn E.]

1994 Vesuvio really is all that.

Shush. I only have ~3 cases and will probably need to buy more.

[Mike J. W.]

If there's a final score sheet floating around, could someone please post it to this thread?

[winesecretary]

Just buy more 1994.
