[CPR 1]

Reconfirming

I still have D,F and V and apparently Burmester

[nac]

As this is now soon-ish, could those who are unreconfirmed please reconfirm? Also, if you haven’t said what you’re offering please do so now

[uncle tom]

Even if I don't make the cut, don't rule me out for contributions - my cellar is designed to fuel events.

[winesecretary]

Reconfirmed. I have to hand Dow, Fonseca, Osborne, Quinta do Vale Dona Maria, Niepoort.

[hadge]

Reconfirming, I have GC, G, D, Ni and F (mag only), will double check i haven't missed anything

Reconfirming, I will have a look shortly if there is anything missing

[Alex Bridgeman]

If we are having the Sandeman, please could we also have the Vau? I don’t get many chances to compare these side-by-side and would love to do so on the 24th.

[idj123]

If not having already done so, then reconfirming. In addition to the three on the first post I have V (as previously advised) plus a CaF.

[uncle tom]

If we are having the Sandeman, please could we also have the Vau?

Have stock

[flash_uk]

Yes reconfirming.

[M.Charlton]

Damn - I’m afraid I cannot reconfirm. Hopefully a reservist can make it (if not, I’ll send a bottle down).

OK - thanks for the update.

At the moment I'm looking very unlikely for this; please move me into the reserves and give Will my spot.

Phil - you're back at the top of the list and there's a space. Do you want it?

[nac]

Still un-reconfirmed for 24/5 are:

JDAW

Yes please.

TC

Yes please

SCD

Yes please

DG

I can bring Fons, or Ramos Pinto.

WillW

I have had it added to my calendar and shall bring the Vau as well as whatever else is needed. Simply let me know in due course.

Will - I already have your Burmester and Sandeman Vau.

Could you all please update.

[nac]

If we are having the Sandeman, please could we also have the Vau?

Have stock

Tom - we already have the SV, but I've been unable to obtain the S (despite buying a case of it & it actually being S77). Do you have it?

[PhilW]

Phil - you're back at the top of the list and there's a space. Do you want it?

Still unlikely, sorry. Might be able to do last minute flying visit if a spot still open at the time, but won't know until that week.

[uncle tom]

Tom - we already have the SV, but I've been unable to obtain the S (despite buying a case of it & it actually being S77). Do you have it?

No - Sogrape's UK VP distribution went off the rails during the late 80's and 90's - there's just no old stock around of Sandeman, Offley or Ferreira.

George has retired now, so I don't know who a bottle might best be begged from in Pt..

Ok - I'll have a think.
The other notable exception so far is Noval. Seems to be equally rare.

OK - will leave you on the reserve list.

Perhaps I could be added to the reserves? I have SW and Pç currently available as well as SV in magnum.

Douglas - place is yours if you want it? Need to know ASAP.

[uncle tom]

Have both the Noval and the Silval

[Screagle]

Nac, apologies for my tardiness; I won't be able to make this event - Monday's and Tuesday's generally don't work for me...

Saúde

OK. Thanks for letting me know.

Tom - you have now made the cut. I assume you want the place?

[jdaw1]

Ramos Pinto is within my reach.

[uncle tom]

Tom - you have now made the cut. I assume you want the place?

Yes please

[Will W.]

NAC - I plan to attend (and apologies for the late response). I have left the bottles in the UK already?

Excellent. I have your B and SV.
