Wine Do 3 will be in June 2010, following the 10th annual BRT (see link below). Last year, a few of us met in NYC to in the fall to enjoy the grape at a BYO place. Hopefully you're not that far upstate, and you can come down. I think you can twist the arms of cordelli, sbm12, and me, to make this happen. "

OK, thanks; that works for me. I'm twisting. Train rides can be fun and I'll bring a bottle or two of whatever is in the cellar at the time. k

We have a more serious dinner coming up on 9/12 where we've hired a chef to put together a tasting menu that fits the bottles we're bringing. Should be great!

Next time you fly through HEL, stop by at the Wine & View bar in Terminal 2.
For example, this week they have 1970 Chteau Grand Listrac and 1975 Chteau La Fourvieille available by the glass.
They also have Krug by the glass, which is nice.
Full list is available online.

wine by the glass is always suspect... half bottles were made for a reason... and that is perhaps why they make Mouton in smaller formats.....
