I would rather cut it off at 1985 and go older or have some Dow Colheitas to make up the filler for everyone to have enough to drink.

That's certainly a possible alternative. I would suggest we perhaps go as far as 94 (15 years old and rated 97 by WS.), and we could add in a bom fim or a colheita or two. It may get expensive to find the 50 & 55, but we do have an offer for a 58 and an offer for a 72, we just need to get to england :)
We should also go looking for the 80, 83 (82?) -- winesearcher has some suggestions.

btw -- does that mean you're confirming? :) Let me know and I'll add you to the list.

I have a 1980, or there's one available at La Cave in Dallas for $129.

I'll check, but as I recall this is my family's Christmas (we alternate with my wife's family) so I'll probably be in Crested Butte, Colorado on the 27th.

Might hav ea few more takers on this event.

Can we start thinking about locations Sushi?

Shall I call up one of the restaurants and ask about private rooms and perhaps set up a prefix?

Might be in NYC on the 27th and if so can bring a 1972. Just let me know venue but I will only be able to confirm a day or two in advance.

Due to some special-guest-inviting, we've been postponing the planning on this. I'm going to declare it officially postponed, with no new date yet chosen. we'll need to sit down and plan something more concrete for it, soon.
