When: Tuesday, November 19 at 6:30
Where: Basilico, 324 Millburn Ave., Millburn, NJ (Located downtown and close to NJ Transit)
Theme: Wines from any region that are 50% or more Cabernet Sauvignon. As you know, these can represent some of the best and most interesting wines in the world, and so it will make for an interesting tasting.
*Requirements: Bring at least one bottle that costs at least $75 to $100. Although not required, you are welcome to bring more than one bottle. I plan to do this. It could be interesting to compare two different regions, or two bottles from the same region, wines of different vintages, two wines from the same producer, etc.
Alternatively, if you are inclined to bring more than one bottle, you could bring a white or sparkling for variety. For instance, champagne was brought last time and it worked well.
But no pressure - all that is required is the one bottle.
*Blind: yes, it will be a blind tasting so bring any bottles concealed in a bag, foil, or cover. (The exception would be if you bring a white or sparkling).
Cost: Splitting the bill, I think all in with gratuity it ends up being roughly $100 per person.
The History: We had a Barolo dinner in July that about 12 Berserkers showed up for and everyone had a very good time. Originally, I posted this dinner in the prior thread for that dinner, but after some switching of the dates–I mistakenly had scheduled this themed night for Election Night–I am putting it up new and fresh here.
