Wife and I will be doing the tasting circuit in Paso this weekend. We would love to meet-up and taste with any fellow boardmembers who will be in Paso that weekend.

We have the following on tap: Tablas Creek, Jada, Denner, Dover Canyon, Villa Creek, Summerwood, Turley, Lone Madrone, Terry Hoage, Booker, Brian Benson, Kaleidos, Pipestone (maybe), Dunning (maybe), Chateau Margene (maybe), Hansen (maybe), and Vina Robles (maybe).

Nice list, I would add Nadeau if I were you - but happy to see you have Dover Canyon listed.

Can't wait for all the tasting notes Brash.

You forgot Justin...and Linne Colado

nah...

my opinions:
Justin = no good anymore
Linne = very good wine, not worth the price ... would rather buy CdP, Bdx, Napa Cab at those prices.

Get your head examined and go to Justin...

The Iso and Justification are badass

I will get my head examined, but I will not go to Justin ... Isoc. is too expensive for what it has to offer (and they're sold out anyways) and I've admittedly never had an opportunity to try their Justification since they're never pouring it in their tasting room ... they're always pouring their reg. bottlings, which have mostly become plonk IMO.

I did enjoy a bottle of their Reserve Tempranillo that stomata brought over to my place last year, but even that is priced at the same level as very good Spanish wines which are leaps and bounds better.

I really liked Justin a few years ago, but they've fallen off ... hopefully they get their act together. At least their restaurant is nice.

I always look forward to visiting Dover Canyon, Denner, and Tablas ... but I'm especially looking forward to trying Terry Hoage, Kaleidos, and Jada all for the first time.

If you want me to pick anything up for you (not from Justin) just let me know what you want and bring some dinero to our OL this Saturday and I'd be happy to do it. (we can get discounts at Denner and Summerwood)
