Added from waitlist please confirm
Glad we didnāt do the buyout lol.
This always happens
Buy the dip. Iāll add one to the waitlist please.
Similarly made other plans so will miss out as well.
Cool will keep it at this level for now with 22
I unfortunately canāt make it on Thursday, will catch you at the Gala dinner saturday if youāll be there.
Can I also add a plus one to the waitlist?
Are you able to attend the dinner? Please confirm
Iād like to add a +1 to the waitlist too please
Unfortunately made other plans for dinner but Iāll be there for the afterparty (noticed my name on the list). This will be my first event - I was thinking champagne but any other suggestions on bottles would be very helpful
Your +1 is in.
Doing a little organizational follow-ups today. And I thought Iād propose two little organization suggestions for the Group. Particularly those bringing 2017 Red Burgundies for the event (most?).

For those bringing 17s, if possible itās always nice to get the wines popped open as soon as possible. Like at 5pm or so for those that have the ability. Iāll probably give my Chapelle-Chambertin a little flash decant as I found that helpful for the January dinner.

We generally have a lot of wines at these (Weāll have many Champagnes & Iām sure other fun things given the groupās tendencies)
It would be fun to mark as many flights/pairings on arrival as possible. People shouldnāt need to have empty glasses if there are wines around, but at the same time, with 3ish hours of red wine focus, that allows 3 flights an hour pretty easily (for those most interested in following along). And for those joining in flight mode, itāll help Tasha the more of us bring our own stems. Thatās the best way to ensure more folks get access to 2-3 glasses.
Each table (of our three) will probably have itās own dialogues/rhythms, but even if 20 person conversations might not happen, hopefully multiple 6-8 person conversations can?
All of this is to say that with Tashaās help, I think we can put aside 16-20 wines for pairing/flight purposes and hopefully go through them fairly relaxed. And weāll undoubtedly still have a dozen-plus bottles outside of those flights that will be open & easily shared at leisure.
Itāll be a tight squeeze, but hopefully a few folks can also share a glass if wines get poured out in 18-20 pours instead of the full 22.
This is Event No. 4 now at Noreetuh this past year, and my hope is we can totally keep our usual fun & relaxed tone without much worry. But also maybe add a few more flight comparisons than we did in March or August of last year ![]()
I tend to drink the least at these things, so Iām happy to help with coordination and let everyone else chill at their tables.
