Nov 22nd Tasting Royal Oporto Colheita
Was thinking about a dumpling and wine tasting at my place on Nov 22nd.
Where: in Forest Hills, Queens
when: 7pm, Nov 22nd.
What: The wife and I will make a wide assortment of dumplings. We'll follow it with a wide tasting of wines.
Royal Oporto Colheitas.
53 colheita - 125$ - Jeff
74 colheita - 54$ - Different Dave
76 colheita - 50$ - JohninNYC
77 colheita - 50$ -
There will be other dry reds in attendance, or if one wishes to be generous and contribute =)

That is Portus the portly dog who enjoys a glass of two of port.
You might see him after a few bottles.

Re: Nov 22nd Tasting Royal Oporto Colheita
After a few glasses I probably won't even notice the difference.

Re: Nov 22nd Tasting Royal Oporto Colheita
Another happy coincidence -- I have a major kungfu event that day but I believe it will end by 5 at the latest. With any luck that would make it possible for me to be in the city in the evening Are you looking for adopters or new bottles? (I have no royal, but could go looking)
Re: Nov 22nd Tasting Royal Oporto Colheita
adopters actually, but it'll be in my apartment in queens. I've actually are spoken for on the 4 bottles of colheitas, but chipping in for the price is always nice or finding a year we dont have is just as good.
roughly 7, come early come later, I shall be around this time and on time. Always looking forward to meeting good company.
http://www.shopritewines.com/vsku1047599.html here's a 75 royal oporto for 65$ , but I'm happy skipping it as there will be plenty of other old reds and whites to taste that night.

Re: Nov 22nd Tasting Royal Oporto Colheita
Jeff -- you've got a few too many bottles assigned to yourself, can I adopt that 77? Probably easier than getting out to Chester or up to Newburgh (where the 75 is lurking).
