Everyone attending the wine tasting tomorrow is in for a treat. I still have a bottle of Motoneta and two bottles of Antologia 38, which may not survive the weekend as I will be joining you in spirit(s). I got an early start yesterday evening by opening another Malbec not on Gaucho's list for tomorrow.

I am surely disappointed in missing the DO this weekend, which is almost as bad as missing the World Cup qualifier on Tuesday between Argentina and Venezuela. Unfortunately with IAH affected by the storm I could not reschedule an arrival in EZE before tomorrow, and even that was sketchy since I live in a UA outstation and connecting flights into IAH are being cancelled or rerouted through hubs. I will say UA employees have been very helpful and open with me as they deal with extremely difficult conditions.
