First come, first served.

The upcoming Memorial Day weekend is a good time to contemplate the wine you're planning on bringing. mjm and DLRoads will be preparing that list. They'd appreciate it sooner, rather than later. The deadline is next week.

But, do the bubbles go the "other way" with a NZ sparkler?

I can confirm solo, and I'll waitlist your +1. Sending a PM with Paypal details.

Reminder to everyone that still hasn't posted their wine....

Theme: Wines of the World
Minimum buy in $35.

Due to currency fluctuations in Europe and South America, if you paid $45 for your wine, and it's currently retailing at $32.99, don't worry.

Rather than copy and paste the list of those that haven't posted their wines, now's the time to do so. If you're buying wine on arrival in New York, you're excused from this exercise.

I have a wine ordered which I had expected to bring, but it is taking a bit longer to be shipped than I had hoped. As it may not get here in time, I will instead bring a Chateau Rieussec Sauternes 2009.

I have no idea of what we are bringing until I get a look into the wine rack in NYC. I will be arriving there sometime late on the Friday, a few hours before the Soupe Do, and will do an inspection at that time. I should be able to post before the end of the day on Saturday but I might need to add something since my rack is heavy on North American bottles and there may be very little of interest otherwise.

For the last week we have been swimming in Kiwi whites down here but a case of most of them would just about reach the $35 minimum.

So I'm just finishing up drinking and bringing nothing back unless I run into a really interesting Aussie at the Duty Free Shop at SYD. See you all in a couple of weeks.
