Envious. Never knew that Martinelli sold any grapes from the Jackass Hill Vineyard…

That was 10 years before Martinelli started making wine commercially. Burt and Ed were buying fruit from Leno back in the '70s for their garage wine.

I have some older A. Rafanelli and Ridge(s) I would love to pop, count me in.

Cool, I’ll start updating the OP.

Been too long since we have made the trip north. Add Mike & Dana to the list.
Will poke some folks down here to come up with us. Cheers Brian!

Now we’re talking! [drinkers.gif]

I am interested as well; have many to choose from.

Great, I’ll add you to the list! Welcome aboard.

Brian, put us down as interested, depending on the final date. Don’t have much Zin any more, Carlisle will be my main options.

What a fantastic idea!!! I’d love to come if it’s on the 17th, and will do so if I don’t fly out to Wisconsin to watch a Packers game with my dad…

I am in depending on harvest issues.

I have to check my Zin collection.



The 17th is my preferred date.
I’ll put you both as pending until I hear more. Any +1s?

You can put me and Lori down. I’m sure I can find something interesting in the cellar.

I appreciate your willingness to open your house Brian, but my preference would be for some place a little less remote.

I know it might be a stretch for you. You might have to improvise a bit. :wink:

Why I oughta!

Thanks Brian!

Found a mini vertical of 97 and 98 each of Kunde and Monte Rosso Ravenswood Zinfandel. Please add to the list.

I am interested in 10/24

Cool, name added!

Brian,

I should let Barry Lawrence know. He has some 60’s and 70’s zin that he is going through now and has lots of stories to tell…

Not sure what has that would be old vine considering the vintages though. More old wine than old vine. He said they are tasting great.

We aren’t that picky Evan. For the love of Zin (and whatever else they decided to interplant).
