Neil: you have first refusal on the seat. I am confident that you’ll accept.

I accept.

I'm unlikely to be able to attend this. Please offer my space to someone else.

Post by **jdaw1** » 22:41 Sun 27 Feb 2022

An industry guest was intended, but didn’t happen. We have a long waitlist. Doing the obvious thing.

Harry, Phil; do you accept? And which ’92s can you make available?

That is me

I can make the date - thus consider me confirmed
If helpful I can provide Fonseca, Vesuvio, Passadouro, or for a little fun a Warre LBV?

Should this be rescheduled and become an attendee, now also have Niepoort.

Still have both of these.

I’d love to try the Quinta Nova please.

I’ve received updated inventories of 1992s. We are rather light of this year. Please would people confirm a willingness to bring as follows.

THRA: Df, DB, EV, V;
TC: CáF, B;
MPM: F, T;
NAC: Nv, Ni;
AHB: CkC;
GEAG: GM;
WPS: SW;
SCD: Yt.

That’s only 14 bottles, so other good possibilities welcomed: pls PM me. Should we add a Warre 1992 ʟʙᴠ?

Some financial equalisation will be necessary, so pls also tell me a cost.

Thank you.

We seem to be missing the Passadouro 92 which is worth including alongside the Ni, and is much better than in some other years if I recall correctly. If wanted I have some.

idj123 · Post by **idj123** » 11:46 Tue 08 Mar 2022

I also have the W LBV 92 and would be happy to bring if required.

winesecretary · Post by **winesecretary** » 15:02 Tue 08 Mar 2022

I am now going to be running late for this tasting, as I will not land at Heathrow until 1825 on 6th, but I am determined to attend, absent flight delays.

I will aim to deliver the GM92 to the B&F the previous week and will ask them to decant it on the morning of the 6th.

A draft of the food order has been started, but is currently low on content. I will enquire about special steaks and post here.

Post by **jdaw1** » 13:03 Sun 20 Mar 2022

Pleas could people bring as follows:

THRA: Df, DB, EV;
TC: CáF, B;
MPM: F, T;
NAC: Nv, Ni;
AHB: CkC, V;
GEAG: GM;
WPS: SW;
SCD: Yt;
CPR: Ps;
JDAW: ChAA.

Please let me know costs.

My ChAA92 was bought this month for £37.

Post by **flash_uk** » 07:21 Mon 21 Mar 2022

F and T confirmed for me. £68 and £75 respectively.

Post by **jdaw1** » 18:09 Mon 21 Mar 2022

Special steaks:

£49, 600g, Club Sirloin Steak
£39, 240g, Fillet Steak
£35, 300g, Rib Eye Steak
£43, 400g, T-Bone
£70, 500g, Chateaubriand

Apparently “Served with a choice of side and pepper / Chimichurri sauce”.

The accounting will reflect the additional expensiveness of steaks.

It has already been decided that Mike and I will share a blue Club Sirloin (food order updated).

Food orders please, from this or from menu.

It is with great regret that I must withdraw from this tasting. I hope this will not cause any issues as there are people still on the waiting list, but let me know if there is any problem with the late notice, which I can only apologise for. I hope it is a great tasting for all.

main: Special Club Sirloin, medium rare (to be shared with Alex), with fries and green beans. Peppercorn sauce please.
no dessert

The SWC 92 will be brought by Tom as it is currently in his cellar. Brought the bt over to him in order to compare with the 91 SWC over 9 years ago. Cannot remember/find out anymore how much I paid, but think 40£s should be OK.
