Count me in! Great to see an event on the Westside, and the lineup of bottles looks amazing so far!
Sounds like a great event, I’m in!
Count me in as well. Great ports and great location.
Count me in pending the results of my liver enzyme tests… You should mention in your post that this is an American Wine Society- LA Chapter event!! AWS events are a lot of fun and pretty damn good wines show up. Can you tell us more about what makes the cheese at this place so special!? 
By the way, how many are coming so far?
Drats, have a prior obligation or I would…I like a little Port from time to time hahahhaha
A great tasting - two 100 point wines (WS), which were tied for Wine of the Year. Also, I had a chance to taste ports from 1960 and 1970.
