the mortlach… i have about a case of champagnes at the ready to pop when they win the championship.

Come on Alan. A bit early, isn’t it? The Warriors is the one bay area sports team I thought I would never see win a championship in my lifetime. And I still have not.

Mortlach.

Alan_Rath · June 2, 2015, 3:53am

Not really, it will take me 7 games to get through any one of these bottles

p_a_u_l_b_a_t_t_a_g_l_i_a · June 2, 2015, 3:54am

considering they are gonna win in 5, looks like you will have some leftovers to enjoy in the offseason. =)

Rick.T · June 2, 2015, 3:59am

I’d go with the Mortlach…

Kevin_Harvey · June 2, 2015, 4:01am

I suggest something more “local”…

T_Welch · June 2, 2015, 4:04am

I’d go for the “triple double.” Pour 2 oz. of each and savor over several hours.

I’m going to ban you

Alan_Rath · June 2, 2015, 4:15am

You’ll have to wait one more. I could also just be drowning my sorrows

Alan_Rath · June 2, 2015, 5:10am

I’m sure there will be something more “local” on tap during dinner

Unless you’re making a nice Marc de Bourgogne?

Alan_Rath · June 2, 2015, 5:15am

Maybe something like this?

Mel_Knox · June 2, 2015, 6:06am

Here are two ideas:

Au Bon Climat Pinot Noir…like S Curry the winemaker was born in Akron but soon fled town and flourished in California
Dashe Zinfandel…works in Oakland, lives in SF

Alan:

I think the Graham’s is the most appropriate, since it has been 40 years since their last win in the Finals. Go Dubs!!

Thanks,
Ed

You might want to keep something on hand made of sour grapes just in case.

Glenn_L_e_v_i_n_e · June 2, 2015, 2:39pm

Across all media avenues I’ve never seen a hoops fanbase other than LA celebrate this prematurely.

I hope for y’all’s sake this 7-man rotation closes the deal.

Ledwards · June 2, 2015, 3:51pm

Go with something that is grown in Klay, with Green and Curry notes- from Barberesco or Barossa ? - just call it a Barbosa… better keep my day job.

Joe_B · June 2, 2015, 4:43pm

40 tawny.

Chris_Seiber · June 2, 2015, 6:05pm

And it’s from Northern Cal to boot.

Alan_Rath · June 2, 2015, 6:20pm

Oh man, Mr. Debbie Downer. Can’t a guy have just a little fun?

Assuming Speights is available, I expect to see a 10-man rotation.
