You drank them all by "accident"? :wink:
Is the $102/person with or without the Sandeman '77? (I'm guessing without, as averaging $100/bottle for this age would be pretty darn good.)
It is with the S77, and actually i think that number is a little high :) We got very good prices on wine, what is a $98 or $100 tasting for 5 would have been 170 at regular prices. I'm kinda surprised more people haven't taken us up on this offer and filled that last couple of seats.

Excuse me, but how did I end up being the butt if all the jokes in this thread?
I will find those missing Vesuvio, even if it means I have to buy them again.
Julian, I'm not so sure about thee.
My glasses, in their nice polywotsamene box, have been washed and dried,

Yours paranoically,

Suggested Decant times:

Thoughts? I should note that Uncle Tom proposes all of these get at least 24 hrs :)

yes, 6:30, and 6 people. Do you think the 60 and 66 need that much time? Should I be providing 12+hrs for the 66, 70, and 77?

well out of bottle they all say spirity and it's what I've found with the 70 and 77 we've had.

I figure the same for the 66 and 60, I guess I'll gauge the morning of,

If the bottle is spirity, I'll leave it open bottled for the 8 hours
if it's fine, I'll recork immediately.

Sounds like a good plan to me.

We're heading for NYC tomorrow morning early, arriving in time for dinner at Perilla. A couple of days of touristy stuff (mostly food), the Port tasting on Friday night, then the crossword puzzle tournament is on Saturday and Sunday. It's going to be a great trip!
