Jace is hosting an offline at his place centered around BBQ and wines to match (Zins, Syrahs). This has been posted on the WS forums but wanted to make sure that we included the audience from Berserkers as well. Dinner will probably be served on the porch and it looks like both types of bbq (Southern and Southwest) will be represented.
There has also been talk about a wine dinner on June 8 at a DC restaurant, probably Urbana.
There are a couple of groups in the DC wine area. One of them uses WS forums to organize the events - the zin dinner was great albeit wet as it was during the big round of storms on Friday June 1. We are currently discussing a dinner on July 7, probably at a restaurant downtown. Interested?
I was hoping to make the event at Jace’s place, but ended up back home in NJ for my birthday. The weekend of the 7th I will be in NJ as well. Bummer! Will definitely catch up with you guys and gals eventually down ehre! -mJ
