NYC - UFI Mid-Summer / cancelled

With special mid-summer holidays in the US, France and Italy thought it would be a good opportunity to enjoy summer wines. Doesn’t have to be from the UFI countries. As Germany Spain Portugal Australia and Argentina are not intentionally excluded.

Looking to share wines in the holiday and summer spirit. If this is of interest and the dates above work, express interest with an indication of whether Pdh on Tues or Joomak on Weds works for you.

Update 8/4: CANCELLED

Hey Julie, I’d love to attend, august works better for me. best,

But wait, are crap wines allowed want to make sure I am not offending anyone!

Interested, but still have to see if I have something that are worthy of the summer spirit. Am normally good with weekdays.

suggest you nip on over to suburban for some 2021 olga ruffault chinon rose, $17.59, works in both tastings.

I like August.

Not a bad suggestion. Thanks for that

Interested if the date works for me.

I’d like to join you as long as it’s indoors.

So this tasting is for the good summer wines while the tasting at Wu’s is for the crappy summer wines? pileon

interested and prefer week of july 11th and weekdays.

Update 7/3: Thanks for expressing interest. (Original post will remain updated for responses.) Will plan for 1 wine dinner each of the weeks since there seems to be some ppls that can only attend one of the two weeks.

For July 11, please select from choices below. Will set up lists for each week once I have a firm date and list of attendees I will split out the lists out into separate threads. Will set up reservations for week of August 7 once I get an idea of interest of restaurant type for week of July 11 - I’ll setup the same poll for Aug 7 with different or similar restaurants.

Week of July 11 options (indoor):
A) Monday, July 11 - Saigon Social 172 Orchard St, 6 people, 7 pm. (Corkage $25)
B) Wednesday, July 13 - Joomak Banjum 312 5th Ave, 6 people, 7 pm (corkage free weds.).

I’ll confirm 7/11 when I return home tomorrow.

In for 7/11

Hi Julie,

My wife (Julie g) and I should be good for August 7th, but unfortunately neither of us can make July 11th.

Hi Brent,

Checking in. Since you didn’t respond back, I take it you won’t be able to make it on July 11?

One seat left for Monday, July 11.

For those interested on Aug 7 week. It looks like Mon- Fri is best, with preference for Thursday or Weds. If there are other constraints or preference lmk.
