stupid q. but ... when should i take the wine outta the fridge?... I usually drink all my bottles before they get to that point?

I was wondering in my drunken stupor last night.

Would radiation effect w ine? How bout cell phone waves?

Let's say you had a hi gain antenna for wi fi in the cellar.

Would it change the taste of the wine?

yea I'm excited to,

I've only had the graham's 85 and the sandeman's 77

the rebello smells really awesome.

Me and Steph should be there on time.

Just to report, fill levels were both pristine for the sandeman and the rebello didn't taste the wines, couldn't bring myself to drink at 6 in the morning seriuosly chunky wines the corks for both were perfectly intact. The sandeman was seeped all the way through tho making the foil cap a bit sticky...

alright done,

I'll get it decanted and pour it back into the bottle before i head out to work.

Looking forward to seeing you guys on monday.

yep definitely in the fridge ....

i'll duct tape close the fridge if I h ave to!!

Hey guys, for the two bottles how much time would you want it decanted? i might be able to decant it for sediment before i leave for work at 6 in the morning and stick it back into the bottle but it'd sit on my desk at work til dinner time. would you guys rather I just bring the two bottles and we d...

Hey jdaw1,

apologies to you and the rest of the guys joining on monday.

I'm gonna have to DK the croft 77.

I checked the fill and it was shoulder level.

Going to replace it with a Rebello Valente 77 instead.

apologies again.

I've had teh S 70 a few years back and while very enjoyable,
the fruit was starting to fade a little and turning a bit tawny like.

but still a very solid wine

I actually don't mind buying from costco simply because they move their inventory so fast. People really do scour the lists to see what's out there and if it's a steal ... it'll be gone as soon as they put it out. I love costco for the taylor 20 tawny ... they had it for like 28$ before tax ... Conk...

would make for a miserable tuesday tho =) ...
since it's the two of us, i can chip in a 77 croft too

That's really cool jdaw.

Just curious on previous tastings, but can you guys really finish a bottle each? =) ...

wow, the hangover just snuck up on me.

That london weather seems to be passing by NY, nothing but clouds, gloom and wetness.

It's actually the girlfriend, but future Mrs. G-Man (I haven't told her yet though)

jdaw1, it's
JG and SY

Should I just ask for the rowdy table with purple stains when we get there?

surprised it's not 50% port make up.

sounds good to me..
looking forward to meeting everyone.

this looks great,

would be me and the missus joining in.

I won't be able to decant prior to dinner tho
and the wines would be sitting on my desk at work since i won't get any chance to swing home.

How does a 77 Sandeman's sound?

how did you guys find the 1980 btw?

Was it the port?

Was it the fellow WS users?

Anybody here know the Bishop of Norwich?

looking forward to sharing the port with you all.
