With all the rush of the new 07s to the states along with the 100 pter 07 dows.

Anyone else in the NY area interested in helping me set up a 07 half bottle tasting?

I have 2 friends who are interested already.

no half bottles but i've purchased both dow & warre...according to the date, of course...

i have a few 375's of 07 port (graham, taylor, fonseca at a minimum) if need be I can open my house up for tasting if done during semi-nice weather (backyard or dining room)

looking forward to it dave,

how's october? I'm in the midst of moving into a new house myself and having a very hectic september

october, as in prime baseball season?!

oh wait, the mets are no where in sight...

i can also do this non weather permitting indoors. How about if we plan for mid October say Saturday, October 16th on Long Island at my place. I can bar-be-cue, cook or we can order in. I will toss a 2007 dow 375 ml in to the ring.
While I have around 100 stems I only have around 20 or so port stems so I will ask for those who can to please bring stems with them.

i also have a spare bedroom, 4 reclining chairs and some couches and floor space if things get a little hectic. My wife can also drive people too/from the railroad station as she does not drink. So those from NJ or a tad further please consider as well!

I have about 150 port glasses, so we can certainly work out the details on that.
Meanwhile, i go on the lookout for halves of 2007.

i'm in napa then
but the weekend after is good for me!

I'm not free on sat the 23rd, but fri night and sunday are OK.

how about Friday the 22nd, we can make it a late start to accommodate for travel time, etc?

I could do that evening, depending on the time.

What's the status on this tasting?
