Free high end Napa Cab wine for two posters... You guys pick who...

[Dan_Hammer]

@J a y H a c k

I vote for Dan Hammer because he lives near me and if you give the bottle to him I have a chance of convincing him to bring it to my house for a BBQ and share it with me, and then you can get two opinions for the price of one. Three if you want to count my wife, who did manage to nail the blind wine we had on Wednesday as a Syrah, although she did not guess that it was Bolivian.

And Franks could come down from up county and Mike could come and teach us all to make pizza. But we would need both bottles for that! And we could bring in Leo to take the photos, since he’s only 10 minutes away

Jay,

Don’t forget Posner. I’m sure he’ll offer his opinionated opinion.

The vote in favor of Mike Pobega makes that a lock. Mike, if you would be willing to taste the wines with a friend or two and post notes on them, please let me know. If so, can you PM me here, there or on FB with the address you’d like them sent to. As the group likes the idea of East Coast, West Coast, I’m open to one more name, although I like the idea of Phil Franks in Seattle. If the group agrees, and Frank’s is interested, if you’re reading, please let me know.

Mike - over here.

I think Phil is a great choice.

Thanks for this consideration. I have sent the shipping address.
These will be tasted in good company.


Cheers!

You won’t enjoy it Boss, it’s from Spring Mountain.

Jeff,

Thank you for the kind offer. I would love to try the wines with the local Seattle crew. I’ll pm my info.

Cheers,

[Dave_Morris]

I’m late to the game (as usual) but would have voted for Mike Pobega as well. Look forward to the results.

[Bill_Tex_Landreth]

Looks like the wines are going to two well deserved guys that will no doubt share them with their respective local crews and post honest reviews.

Nice gesture Jeff.

[Humberto_Dorta]

Sweet. Been away dealing wtih a flooding fucking basements but I would have voted for Pobega as well and Bill or Brian.

[Daniel_Greathouse]

Jeff,

I tasted the three wines with Jonathan at his house and enjoyed them very much… I’ll hold off posting my notes until your designated tasters publish and we’ll compare perspectives then…
Looking forward to everyone’s thoughts.

Thank you to everyone for all your great suggestions. I forwarded the addresses of Mike and Phil. The wines will be shipped direct to them Mike and Phil have agreed to share the wines with other posters on their area. I look forward to the notes.

Y’all are going to taste them blind among peers, right? That would be a great excuse to throw a tasting with a group.

Mike’s already blind. The only time he can see is when there’s a Cab in front of him. Guess how he gets around town?




Cab.

One track blind-mind.

your marklars are very wise T-Bone…

[mike_pobega]

Phil, you get your wines yet?

Phil, you get your wines yet?

The good news is that Phil can share it with me because he’s now local!

Nothing for the Easties yet.

[J_a_y_H_a_c_k]

I really think you need to consider sending a third bottle to Dan “Ghost Horse” Posner. The we could get the entire “upstate” Westchester group to taste it including Posner and Leo and Whore-Hay and Dan Hammer and me.
