I’ll bring a BDX, maybe even something with cab franc, who knows?

24

Started a list of attendees.
Larry, is Sandi coming?

Also, what time?
6:30?

I will try to confirm with the manager.
He went radio silence on me after a few email exchanges.
He said he was interested in hosting us but the private space is taken that night, but I told him we didn’t need it, just a 10 top.

Anyway, just in case, is there an alternate place you guys like?
I still hope we can do Paul Martin.
Andrew mentioned Martins West. (I can’t believe people would actually go there and order nothing - I’d tell them to get the f*ck out! wow wtf!)
As another back up, I know Sole always likes having us.

Will try to firm up location this week.

25

Yup, just asked and Sandi really wants to go! 6:30 is fine.

I’ll bring my bottle of CA Cab, '07 Karl Lawrence, and a bottle of Chinon, TBD.

Dan, please add me to the list for March 3. Thanks!

If u need me to ping Martins West let me know: it is a husband/wife ownership and now I have a direct email to the wife.

Hey guys,
The private room is not available on March 3 for Paul Martin’s.
However, they should be able to accommodate us on the covered heated patio.
I personally like that, but wanted to check with everyone.

Any opinions?
If no prob, then I will confirm.

30

No problem here.

31

I’m ok with that.

32

Ok - last question - he said he’d waive 50% off corkage for this.
Just wanna make sure everyone is still ok with that.

33

What is corkage? Under, say, $10/bottle is OK with me.

34

Corkage being??? Don’t see it on their site.

35

I just called.
Normally $10/bottle.

36

What, they’re not comping us corkage?! newhere

(Seriously, $5 is great)

37

Yes – fantastic corkage! And patio should be great.

38

They might once they see how charming we are!

39

I’m afraid if that’s the case, they’ll double it! [snort.gif]
