Yes - I’ll need to withdraw the RP55 as on inspection it is Fr55

Sorry for the delay

Lunch - smoked salmon
Chicken Scnitzel

Of those not listed - sandeman and Warre - I may have a bottle of RP somewhere

forest26

Bottles are resting - I’m intending to decant just before I leave for the train (about 2:40). I’ve opened a few 45’s this year and they have stood up well and not fallen off a cliff.

Confirmed - looking forward to this.

Re the extra three (K, B, Cá), I await instructions from our master. And from Neil, re /A2 . I put Tony down as bringing B, because he said: As I’m visiting Burmester Monday - I’ll bring one along Re K and Cá, that’s entirely down to Tony’s discretion. Please post if you wish to bring them, Tony, s...

Croft 35 - decanted 10am

forest26

So.. not a great year by the sounds of it. Now the vintage is wrapped up, is it looking like a poor, bad or terrible one? From what I gather (no pun intended), grapes picked before the main rains that came were very good. What came after the rain, not so much. That generally means some producers wi...

forest26

Looking at dates which might work for this tasting - how would the first week of October fit into people's diaries? That is, week commencing Monday 2nd October? That gives us a 2 week gap from the 1966 horizontal. Or the week before half term, that would be week commencing Monday 16th October. If w...

forest26

Add 1908 low shoulder bottle - for interest

forest26

Add 1966 and 1982 to the list.
