I’m doing the tasting tour on Friday…bunch of stuff, but I hate to miss this, too. Wonder how I could make them both work.[/quote]
I just spoke with Mike. He and his family will be in Boston and New York until Saturday. He has a tasting already scheduled in St Helena on Sunday Morning so any willing BSer’s with some blood left in their alcohol streams are invited. I am in.[/quote]
count me in Jack, when is it?[/quote]
It’s when we are doing all those winery tastings you scheduled, ace.[/quote]
I got a chance to barrel sample Mike’s '07s back in February, and thought they were delicious. Full-flavored, rich cabs - to me they were stylistically similar to the few Schraders I have had (which makes sense since Mike worked with TRB at Schrader).
As a side note, I believe that Mike’s existing appointment on Sunday morning is with me - so I guess I will see some of you guys there. Look forward to meeting you and hearing about the festivities from the night before.
Hi Paul, Mike told me that the appointment was with you and a friend. I will be there so long as I have one ounce of blood left in my wine stream.
Do you know what time you plan to arrive?
Best, Jack
Still waiting to confirm the time with Mike - I will let you know once I hear back from him. We will be driving over from Santa Rosa - so hopefully not too early in the am.
Time to get serious. I have set an appointment with Mike and Leah in the late AM on Sunday Aug 16th. I need to call to confirm with a number, please speak now or forever hold your piece.
