Number 6 —\u00a0 September, 1993<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tasting Notes<\/h1>\n

Wow!\u00a0 What a great first event!\u00a0 Who would have imagined that with all those 20 point ’74 Cabernets the best wine of the tasting would be a ’71 Haut Brion Blanc?!!\u00a0 As luck would have it, that’s the only wine that we have more than one bottle of!\u00a0 Look for another bottle at an upcoming event, perhaps in February.\u00a0 Thanks to all for attending, and for the excellent wines you all brought.\u00a0 Thanks to Andy for making the arrangements, and a special thanks to Ariel’s for providing such a nice environment.<\/p>\n

Auction News<\/h1>\n

The next Butterfield & Butterfield auction is October 2nd.\u00a0 By a stroke of good luck, I will be in Los Angeles on that date, and so will be able to attend in person.\u00a0 This will give us some extra opportunities for “bottom fishing”, so rather than send out a list of potential lots I’ll wait and see what comes up.\u00a0 There are some excellent Haut Brions from the 50’s, and two Petite Sirah verticals that look particularly interesting.<\/p>\n

Upcoming Events<\/h1>\n

Our second meeting is confirmed for December 4th at Ariel’s.\u00a0 We will meet at Matha’s Vineyard at 5 p.m., sharp<\/span> for appetizers and a half hour stand-up social.\u00a0 As before, each couple may bring two wines to share during the appetizers or dinner.<\/p>\n

The theme of this tasting will be Chateau Cheval Blanc, with ten vintages going back to 1937.\u00a0 Wines to be included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
