Number 40 —\u00a0 July, 2001<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our Last Event<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once again the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Catering staff did a fantastic job.<\/p>\n

Our two-decade tasting of BV Georges de la Tour Private Reserve revealed that the vintages from 1968 through the 1970s remain stellar. Favorites were the ’60, ’68, ’69, ’74, ’75 and ’76. Congratulations to Al, who got all eight wines in the second flight!<\/p>\n

Our Next Event<\/h1>\n

Our next event will be at Sunday, July 22nd. Since Linda and I will be arriving from L.A. after two weeks in Australia, the next event will be organized by Ron. He’s planning on a dinner upstairs at Emeril’s.<\/p>\n

The theme of this event is \u201cWhat were they doing in France when you were a kid?\u201d. The following wines will be poured blind in the flights shown:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Auction Action<\/h1>\n

The California economy is definitely helping out our auction activities. Wasn’t it just a year or two ago that Stony Hill was going for $100 a bottle?<\/p>\n
