Re: Offline in Los Angeles Area -- 2023 version
I’m putting it in my calendar, as well. It would be great to see everyone, and to enjoy more delicious wine.

Re: Anyone fancy a madeira tasting?
I’ll bet we could convince Steve Pollack to join if it was in CA (or likely in LV)

Re: Anyone fancy a madeira tasting?
I’m in if you’re someplace on the US at a time that I can get there. I’m definitely in the mood to share some Madeira

If an offline comes together in CA and the timing works out, I’d love to meet up.

Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
I’m fortunate to live just a few miles from her warehouse, so just came by the house after picking it up, on her way back up to Napa.
I’ll share back and early preview of the wines once opened in the coming days.. Cheers

Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
All of my Quevedo ports (and table wines) from the subscriber buyers op were just personally hand delivered by Rachel (from Rachel Farah Selections) to my home this morning. Talk about stellar service.. I’m excited to break into them soon as I’ve never tried any of their wines before and expect good...

Re: What Madeira Have You Opened This Week?
Over the past few days, I’ve been drinking the Barbeito Duas Pipas Bastardo. I’m interested in the insights of those more experienced with the the bastardo grape. I’ve only tasted the grape a couple of times and both were many years ago, early in my coming to really get to know Madeira, so my notes ...

Re: Offline in the Los Angeles area January 10-11, 2020
As has been the case frequently over the past several months, I've been finding myself reflecting quite a bit lately. I would have never guessed fewer than 2 weeks into the year, that one of the true highlights would have already come and passed. Yet, upon evaluation, the LA area port tasting really...

Re: Offline in the Los Angeles area January 10-11, 2020
Thank you Andy for pulling together such a fantastic couple of days. I arrived home last night expecting to be greeted by a dozen+ bottles of wonderfully aged ports, a litany of beautiful dinner wines, and a bounty of meat (as the prior two nights had created a well established pattern and expectati...

Thank you Andy. I'm hoping it will, and it's good to know there will still be the potential to still participate in Friday if I can get things adjusted on my end.

I'm sorry that Don can't make it out any longer, but I'm happy to fill the tasting spot, if it's available.

Re: FTLOP 14th Anniversary Tasting
It looks like you're full, and I'm afraid that I have a flight back home that evening, so I'd be unable to participate in the dinner. However, if a tasting spot opens up, I'd love to see everyone.

Roy,
I'm actually living down in the Bay Area now (likely, for the next couple of years). Hopefully, we'll get you down this way in the near future.

Roy,
you're a solid 153ish ahead of me this year. However, my favorite so far is the 1905 D'Oliveira Verdelho that I've been working my way through over the past month. Between the acid and the finish, it's been tough to put down. Bottom's Up...
