Re: May 23rd, 2024 - LBV - The Young Turks
Tom, given the few drop outs we've had would it be ok to boost the numbers? I have a friend or two who aren't members here who may well be very interested in joining us for this event. Absolutely - new faces very welcome Err…shouldn’t we go to the reserve list firstly-or has this been exhausted?

Re: Graham, Tue 14 May 2024
A great night and perhaps the most consistently good vertical I have attended. Two bottles – the 63 and 70 were below par but on the other hand the 75 and 83 were the two best examples of these wines that I have drunk. The 97 is also going in the right direction.

Re: Thursday 11th April - Decanting Experiment plus some drinkers
I was one of the two evening attendees (Ben being the other) to whom Harry refers, above. Arrived to find all in good spirits, although some perhaps having a warmer alcoholic glow than others! Given the late arrival, difficult to pass too much judgment on the experiment, although I did marginally pr...

Re: Thursday 11th April - Decanting Experiment plus some drinkers
Apologies but I will now be tied up with a new business proposal and so, won’t be able to attend the lunchtime part of this tasting but should still be able to make the evening if that can be accommodated? Assuming so, I will have my new usual: Welsh Rarebit Steak (M/R) fries and carrots with pepper...

Re: 1994s, B&F, Tue 26 Mar 2024
Interesting tasting but I’m not sure how instructive with one entrant garnering more points (40 out of 42-take a bow V and from magnum, thank-you Anthony)than I can recall at any tasting. However, for me, the big guns just weren’t firing (F was particularly disappointing), with the exception of N, w...

Ck and Tesco corks pulled at c9pm last night and decanted this morning at 6.15. No problem with the Ck cork, but yes, the Tesco cork disintegrated!

Would anyone object if I brought a Tesco 94 as an additional bottle, which I came across at the same time as locating the Ck94?

Welsh Rarebit
Steak (M/R) and fries with peppercorn sauce and carrots
Dessert TBD on the night
Thanks
