Our Last Event<\/h1>\n

Tremendous thanks to Ron for organizing the fabulous dinner at Emeril’s. They did a wonderful job in every respect, and we’re so glad our flights from Australia allowed us to get there and enjoy it! Let’s hear it for Burgundy! The favorite wines were ’62 Puligny Montrachet, ’64 Chevalier Montrachet, ’66 Chambertin, and ’53 Nuits St. Georges.<\/p>\n

Our Next Event<\/h1>\n

Our next event is Friday, November 9th, at 6pm at our house. The Friday evening time is unusual, but there were Saturday and Sunday conflicts throughout October and November. Hopefully it will be cool enough for a bonfire.<\/p>\n

We will have a new caterer for this event, due to the fact that the Hyatt Regency noticed that they were losing their shirts on us.<\/p>\n

The theme of this event is \u201cThree Regions\u201d. The following wines will be poured blind in the flights shown:<\/p>\n
