BERSERKERFEST 5 NYC PDH ~ Italian Table

Hi Guys,

Sticking with the Piedmont theme, I’ll be bringing a 1988 Roagna Crichet Paje and a 1999 Vietti Scarrone Vigna Vecchia.

Looking forward to it!

Hey kids, one week notice!!! [dance-clap.gif]

If you haven’t sent payment, please do so ASAP. [thankyou.gif]

This just posted on CT… 95

Blind tasting

App: Dark purple red
Aroma: Sour raspberries, rubbery and a touch of barn
Full bodied and smooth tannins.
Very good length w/sweet gooseberry ending

Ok, I think I’m brining 01 Bartolo Mascarello and 95 Roagna Rocca e la Pira. Speak now or drink later.

I may bring an off topic white or bubbles. For variety’s sake.

I am willing to drink those! [wink.gif]

I’ll bring few magnums of champagne and few barolos.

Is that 95 airline points!

I’m not going to want to work the next day, am I?

You might, but I doubt you’ll be productive… [cheers.gif]

I figured I’d bring either a bubbly or a dessert, plus 2 reds (one pre-90, one post '90).
I stood up some older ones. Any interest in a 58 or 61 Spanna? Or if we want to stick to Barolo/Barb I could bring a 67 Oddero, 71 Ceretto Montefico, 88 Ceretto Faset, or 89 Prunotto Montestefano.
Trying to match vintages with what others are bringing, I think my lone 95 is a mag of Ca Roma Rapet, which I have no idea why I bought, never tried. 98 or 99 maybe a Marcarini?
Any preferences appreciated, or I’ll just grab a random pair.

I vote older! I would like to try that 67 Oddero.

I vote older and for the 71 Ceretto!

+1

any chance there is an extra spot at the table?

I have a few options that work if theres a spot open… 88 Poderi Aldo Conterno Bussia Soprana and
83 Gaja Costa Russi.

Don’t mind bringing both. Let me know. Sorry for the late notice, but I’m a shady slacker these days [bow.gif]

There should be. It looks like I won’t make it down for Friday.

Ken you can’t make it?

Too bad, though the 67 Oddero wouldn’t change your opinion about Oddero me thinks.

Ali - the 88 Crichet Paje rocks! Hope you can swing by with a pour!

I’ve got trade bait!

Welcome to the table Izzy!!!

Dale, did you decide what you were bringing yet? I was going to do Vallanna Spanna too so wanted to make sure we don’t end up duping!

I thought the votes were mostly for 67 Oddero, so was going with that. Plus a 2000 Marcarini so there’s something to pair with Dan’s wine. OK?

Was also thinking of bringing a Bernard Bremont Champagne, either Prestige or Rose, since not very common. But maybe that’s bubbly overkill with Leo?
