The Great Wine Berserkers Bordeaux Tasting Challenge

I would hope to be present - not sure of when it is, and what’s going on for me during that time, but I’ll do my best to be there. If Jeff doesn’t show, can I have his seat?

Definitely shooting BEFORE the wines…even here in Tejas.

I have a 1911 from the Kimber Custom Shop, so you would feel right at home.

Excellent. I’d better get some practise in then so as not to unduly embarrass myself at the range - as I just may do that at the tasting. It’s been a long time since I’ve been to the range. The last one I used to go to was an indoor one nearby and the fumes made my sinuses act up badly the last few times.

Best,

N

Who are the others?

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:09pm

Other wine lovers in general.

Daniel_Posner · February 15, 2010, 5:11pm

I love wine lovers.

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:12pm

OK then, you can come.

Daniel_Posner · February 15, 2010, 5:15pm

I got connects at the Men’s Club down there, if you want a good spot to host this thing!

mike_pobega · February 15, 2010, 5:19pm

interested.

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:19pm

I don’t think that two dollar perfume and cigar smoke is very conducive to wine tasting…not that I would know about such things. Plus, I just don’t trust Serge in there.

Jack_Bulkin · February 15, 2010, 5:22pm

I would like to make it Tex, but my schedule is less flexible than Jeff’s. pepsi

T_Snyder · February 15, 2010, 5:24pm

Now I’m interested. Couldn’t tell you squat about BDX, but I can bring things far more fun than a regular 1911…or just more 1911’s

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:26pm

You really need to do something about your ex-wife.

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:27pm

Well…

We can break out the .375 H&H Magnum and give watermelons some grief. I should have a new Ruger Piston AR-15 soon enough as well.

T_Snyder · February 15, 2010, 5:31pm

I have 2 of the new Para’s (really the original ZM’s) that I’ve never even fired yet. Short barrel and that folding stock make for a really compact package.

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:33pm

Nice.

Tyler_Rico · February 15, 2010, 5:38pm

I dont think Dr Crane is a vineyard in Medoc

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:41pm

Correctamundo…plus we all know how Mike just loves BDX.

Just as a clarification, those that I would like to attend need to have an established “rep” of being a bordeaux fan…either on WB, eBob or personally to me. I think those already on this list in the OP have proven their street cred in this regard.

Daniel_Posner · February 15, 2010, 5:45pm

Bill

The Men’s Club has a great VIP section, or so I have heard…

Bill_Tex_Landreth · February 15, 2010, 5:49pm

Haha…maybe for the after, after party with a three liter of Ace of Spades.
