Leonard here confirming: looking forward~

42

Thank you for organizing Rich . This will be a lot of fun . I will bring magnums on Monday ….
I hope we can taste some great West coast wines .

43

I’m in if there’s room…if not, no worries.

44

Hi all - it now looks like I may need to be in trial those days. While I’d love to attend, I see there is a waitlist for this. I think its best at this time that I give up my spot so that someone the waitlist can properly plan to attend. If the trial ends up moving, I will check back in to see if another spot opens up. Thanks.

45

I’m also going to need to bow out. Work deadlines in January. Looks like there are 2 folks on the waiting list so they can take my and Jesse’s spots.

46

Thanks for letting us know Larry and Jesse. Another time!

47

Since we’re less than a week away, should we start noting what folks plan to bring? With this number of people, we might be able to get some mini-verticals going. At a minimum, it behooves us to limit the possibility of a couple dozen Napa cabs getting opened, with zero representation of other varietals and regions… [swoon.gif]

And if Herwig has any particular requests of varietals/regions he’d like to taste (“great West Coast wines” is pretty broad, sir!) that would certainly be welcome!

To kick things off, I’m thinking a Thomas PN with some age (Herwig liked the Thomas I brought the last time I offlined with him a few years back) and a Cayuse with some age. Or possibly an early Andremily…

48

I have a 2006 Pax Walker Vine Hill magnum lined up :slight_smile:

49

I’m guessing a lot of people will bring reds… I could offer Ultramarine bubbles or Aubert/Littorai/Rhys Chardonnay

50

@Andy Ultramarine sounds awesome. I’ve got a 2010 VHR teed up. Yea Napa Cab but wth.

51

Assuming I’m over my cold, I’ll bring a 2017 Ladd Cuvee Voile Chardonnay, a ‘sous voile’ chardonnay…my second vintage of this, the first was 2014 (I vetted bringing this with Alan Rath, who’s had it & gave his thumbs up), and another bottle to be determined (on what I find in my locker!).

52

I’ve discovered at the last minute I have a conference dinner on that night, so won’t be able to make it.

Which is too bad-- looks like a pretty cool lineup is beginning to form!

53

I will bring a white Burgundy … magnum probably . I am really looking forward , thank you !

54

I have to withdraw, I’d have to leave court early, no time for BART, find parking, drive 120 miles roundtrip, and drive 290 miles the next day for a training. I’d start out the week beaten up. Have fun guys and Cindy!

55

I have a '87 Montelena cab to bring. Someone needs to represent Napa. Hmm, I may also bring an '02 Peay Syrah.

56

Please add me to the waitlist. If there is room, I would like to join.

57

Thanks George!

Bringing a pair of 2012 Williams Selyems, Rochioli Riverblock PN and Papera Zin.

58

Bill, you can join. No need to be on the waitlist!

59

Thankfully I’m over my cold.

I’ll be bringing a 2001 Domaine de L’Arlot 1er Cru Clos des Forêts St. Georges (not the young vines version), in addition to the chardonnay.

60

Hey guys, unfortunately I can not make it. My wife is out of town and I need to stay home with my son.
