Just a quick update.
'66, '70, '75, '79, '82, '89, '90, '96, '97, '00, '02, '04 appear to be the current vintages that have been offered. Generously, Dale Williams has sent the '75 for the group to enjoy, so I want to say a special thanks to Dale, who isn't able to attend. THANKS.
For clarification, I hope to start into these ASAP on Saturday, presuming bottles are in attendance (think most will be there early). I think I'll open old to young with the help of all who have a bottle in the mix. And, I also think it most fair that those who do have a bottle in the vertical should get first pour from each new wine opened, and any remaining wine is available to anyone in attendance. Yes, this will get kinda messy, but with help of those bottle owners to open/pour and cooperation in general, most ought to be able to sample at least a few vintages.
I certainly suggest if you're a bottle donator, to bring EXTRA GLASSWARE as we'll be going through wines fairly quick so we don't take up the whole afternoon!
My thanks to all who have offered wines for this fun endeavor.
Mike
