WineDo 7 - Sunday June 15, 2014 - NYC
 
The theme this year is Wines of Napa and Sonoma, with a sub-theme California. WineDo 7 is in memory of our dear friend cordelli, who enjoyed his California wines. Champagnes will be the exception to the rule. ;)

Estimated cost $85 - $90 all-in. Anna Cordelli has been invited to attend as a guest of WineDo 7.

Save the date: Sunday June 15, 2014 post BRT.

Here's the thread from last year.
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/commu...-post-brt.html

Some background details

WineDo 1 started as a dinner the day after BRT. The theme was bring your best wine. Bottles ranged in price from $10 - $250. Just as wine improves with age, so did WineDo. Our goosey Lucy dinners started to have themes. We increased the minimum dollar amount of the wines to $35. You could bring a bonus bottle at any price, but your main bottle had to be verifiable $35. ;) In theory, we were protecting our palette against marginal wines. The reality is that many attendees, some that have a knowledge of wine and some that didn't, stepped up and brought expensive bottles. And by expensive I mean $75 +.

For the cost of dinner and a bottle of wine, you will drink great juice.

Dinner is open to everyone, even beer drinkers. :p

There are plenty of stores in New York to buy wine. You can also source from my cellar. ;)

Past WineDo's have filled up with a maximum of 24 attendees. We usually somehow manage to drink through 35+ bottles. :o



North Square private room. They're in Greenwich Village. They do a nice job every year. ^

♫ I'll be there, I'll be there, just call my name, and I'll be there ♫♫

Now, where will I be able to find a decent California wine that costs more than $35? :D

^^:cool:

I plan to attend this one. Now I need to figure out if I should buy a ticket or go for an F award.

GrjApp Feb 9, 2014 4:38 pm

Count me in! WineDo 6.1 was too much fun, wouldn't want to miss this one :)

Turned out to be a combination. F award going down, cheap A-AS ticket for the return. No F coming home.

Now to find the Soup DO thread:D
