Should be in for this one, but I won't be bringing a big Shiraz, will that be OK??

[wineforlife]

Absolutely
I think I will bring a Houghton Gladestone shiraz 1999.

[ufo]

Great. I'll bring a Kiwi SB

[wineforlife]

Great! We might have a good number for this tasting

[maybs]

That's a bit or a hike for me but I may be able to make it, just depends on another precious commitment that may or may not be going ahead. So maybe call me 50/50 at this stage.

[wineforlife]

No problem scott, I hope you can make it.

[TiggerK]

Great. I'll bring a Kiwi SB

Suddenly I can't make it.

[Polymer]

Yeah it's not looking good for me either...my trip to China got moved...I'll know more in a bit..

A good Kiwi Sb like mine

[TiggerK]

Oxymoron alert.

Is that a man that enjoys premoxed wine?

Jokes aside, I find that the various styles of Chardonnay go well with Indian food, different styles for different dishes.

Also Riesling.

Hey Guys, if you keep quoting words like Chardonay/Riesling ... we r gonna loose Burges too.

[griff]

Bit far for me but to keep Burges onside you could easily match a big curry with a big vintage port

That's interesting - never tried VP with Indian food ...

All this talk about chardonnay and riesling makes me feel like getting a tannat to complement the vindaloo

A very good match. Needs to be young and fruity. Mature VP's are best as contemplation wines (or cheese if one must).

Any suggestions?

[The Hunter]

How about a sparkling burgundy (SB) ? Went to a SB tasting at an Indian a few years back (about a dozen different SB's) and they went surprisingly well across a good range of curries.

[wineforlife]

Sorry guys, I won't be able to make to this tasting. Company called and I must work on the 15th Friday evening.

I am happy to make the bookings. 3 course meal for around 30 dollar per head, and one of best Indian restaurants out there.

Let me know gentlemen, this event should not be spoiled just because I cannot make it. Cheers

[TiggerK]

Can't speak for others, but happy to postpone this for a few weeks until you can make it. After all, it was your idea!

Same here. Happy to postpone.

[wineforlife]

Great, can you guys please give me some dates when you guys are free on fridays?

Cheers

22nd is good.

[TiggerK]

Can't do 22nd, but 29th or 5th Sept OK for me. Actually 29th is pushing it, how about the 5th Sept?
