Remind me to sit next to you so I know I will get a pour. It will go quick!

I wouldn't worry about having too many wines...I don't think there is such a thing....

Someone will start bringing a white instead of an extra red or in addition to..there will be some balance..but even if we had all Pinot..*shrug*

.

It is just like the last casual offline..we had all reds..ended up with a decent number of whites...

Wise words Kevin. I was having a moment of weakness and foolishness.

Now I'm off to have a look around the vineyards of the Tamar and sample my fair share

Oh...nice Scott!

Hey, what happened to that SpÃƒÂ¤tburgunder on the list I thought I saw at the start of this thread?
Anyway, I will bring one for some interest.

If you get a chance, Delamere is decent. I like the Chardy particularly. Nice, quiet cellar door too.

going to Tassie this Thurs myself, Tamar, Freycinet, Coal River over a few days, should be good

Krusty · Post by **Krusty** » Mon Apr 13, 2015 3:38 pm

How often do you find DRC and Windy Peak mentioned in the same thread ?

Alas, a trip to the cellar and much searching and carton shifting did not reveal a Sav Blanc of any stripe. I will have to settle instead for a 2006 Louis Jadot Charmes-Chambertin.

Am really looking forward to this.

Nice one! We are heading home tomorrow but have done about 18 or so wineries in the last 6 days in those areas. Been quite impressed with some, less with others, generally not very impressed with the QPR. Will probably do a more detailed write up later this week after we get home. Did buy a fair bit of stuff including a fair bit of pinot (my wife's true first love) but think I will stick with the wines referred to above for this offline. Although the 2010 Apsley Gorge I think might hold its own in the line up...

Gents, unfortunately I'm out. Got some coughy/virus thing that I can't seem to shake. On antibiotics, so a bevvy of wine is not prescribed. I will reconfirm the booking tomorrow. Everything else is set.
At the moment got 11 confirmed and two reserves.

Polymer · Post by **Polymer** » Tue Apr 14, 2015 3:39 pm

Confirmed from my side..

TiggerK · Post by **TiggerK** » Tue Apr 14, 2015 7:10 pm

Sorry to hear that Paul, see you next time!

So Bobthebuilder?? You're up if you can still make it?

If not, then wizlb, and if still no go, dingozegan expressed an interest.

Bobthebuilder · Post by **Bobthebuilder** » Tue Apr 14, 2015 10:52 pm

Yeah I'm good to go, I'm almost certain
Need to confirm with the boss in the morning, she's already gone to bed.

Michael R · Post by **Michael R** » Wed Apr 15, 2015 7:50 am

Looking forward to it, but may be a late arrival.
Have an old world Chardy and new world Pinot.

If it helps at all, perhaps the wine was made with a bottle of Shiraz tipped into the barrel.

Michael R · Post by **Michael R** » Wed Apr 15, 2015 3:59 pm

Haha, classic!
Or was it even Shiraz???
Nope, not what your thinking of Andrew, am bringing an 08 Felton Rd Calvert.
I never seem to drink the stuff anymore as its in WineArk and everyones gone Burgundy mad these days.
Just need to get to WineArk before 5pm tomoz!
