As most of us know, they do provide nice stems for us, so just have to arrange some decanters. This message has been edited. Last edited by: aav28, |

FYI -- I was at Splat's last night and they're now charging a $10 per bottle corkage fee on weekends only.

I'm sure they'll drop it for us. I'll call and ask as we get closer.

With the power of Dok, I can easily see that happen. |

I learned this evening, that my sister is throwing a bash for her son's first birthday on the 22nd. As a result, I will not be able to make the 7:00pm start, but refuse to miss the evening altogether, and as such, will be late - around 9ish. I will arrange to have a wine there, previous to my arrival.

aav,
I called Splat to book a dinner for tomorrow and while I was at it, I booked for April 22nd for 12 people starting at 7:00pm. I hope that's alright with you. I'll speak to Todd about corkage when I see him tomorrow. |

WGIT,
Only to ensure I get my favourite table! Will I see you there (again)? |

AAV - please put me down as tentative assuming space is available. It's been way to long since my last offline! I'll be able to confirm closer to the date. Thanks.

No problem. You better start coming to offline again as we starting to forget your face. |

gentlemen,
I am afraid that I will not be able to attend. I just got notification that one of my best friends is having his stag on April 22nd. I hope that everyone enjoys the evening Regards, A Now....where's that Screwpull? |

Sorry to hear, mav.
Anyone decide on their wine yet? I'm pretty sure I'm going to bring a 1998 Bosquet des Papes Chateauneuf-du-Pape. It's the oldest Rhone wine I have. |
|||
|
|
Member |
I am in the same boat as you. I have very few Rhones older than 1998. I have some older Beaucastel, but that stuff needs AT LEAST 15 years before it is ready. I will bring one of the following.. please advise if any of you have a preference.... 1998 Caves de Papes "Les Closiers" CdP 1999 Clos de L'Oratoire CdP "There's no substitute for pulling corks" Alexis Lichine |

The last time I was at Splat, it was a Saturday, and he charged me $10 corkage.
I'll try to talk to him about our upcoming event. |
|||

I have absolutely no problem paying $10 corkage. After all Todd has done for us, I say we leave it be.
I will definitely be there, btw. |

Not much old Rhone in my cellar, as a matter of fact not much old anything but there will be in a few years. I'll bring a 2000 Jaboulet Aine Vacqueyras and a 1998 Chapoutier Banyuls (not a Rhone wine, but a Rhone producer) for dessert.
