NOW WED 17TH JUNE - Bring a bottle wrapped in foil (previously Tuesday 16th June)

[Christopher]

It’s been ages since I have done a blind tasting, we used to do more of these bring a bottle wrapped in foil tastings. In the early days of TPF I think they were the most common type of tastings. We have become better at doing excellent organised verticals and horizontals. Once in a while a decent blind tasting is a lot of fun.

I think we will go for a Vintage Port from a classic vintage between 1960 and 1985 so it’s a bit less open to totally left field bottles

This has now been booked for Wednesday 17th June. I have the Red Room reserved so can do up to 14. We'll aim for 18.00 arrival for starting at 18.30.

As I know I will get asked I don't mind if you bring your wine in a decanter but please bring original bottle wrapped in foil or the like for the great reveal!

Everyone needs to confirm they can make this date please

Fool! You will greatly regret this.

[idj123]

Yes, 16 June should work for me.

[Alex Bridgeman]

Can I grab the last place on the list of attendees for an industry guest please?

[Alex Bridgeman]

Apologies to everyone, but the date of this tasting has changed slightly - it's now to be held on Wednesday 17th June in the Red Room at the Boot & Flogger.

Please can you confirm that you can make the new date.

Christopher and I have been exchanging messages behind the scenes with Oscar, who has to be in London for a meeting on Thursday 18th. By moving the date back by a day, we have been able to include Oscar at this TPF event. Thanks in advance for enabling us to include Oscar.

[NigelM]

Good for me
