We'll go with whatever the majority decides, though I have to be there if I'm to bring these wines. I'm expecting to have a dinner planned with the owner of one of Priorat's greatest wineries sometime in that period. I may ask her to join us. We'll do it in Manhattan. In your email, be sure to let me know your moniker. When it comes time to make the reservation, you'll have to commit since a deposit may be necessary.
Send me an email. I'm going to keep all the emails I receive together and will respond as soon as we can agree on a date.
Just one more sip.

This is getting pretty large. We'll need two bottles of each wine. I've edited the post above to indicate those who'd like to come. I'm waiting to hear from a Priorat winery owner to see if she might join us, so I'll get back to all of you.

I just received an email. They're busy with the harvest in Priorat and expect this year to be another great vintage for the remarkably consistent region.
They will be in NYC for a celebration of 10 years owning the winery. That will be on Thursday, October 30th and they are leaving NYC on Sunday, November 2nd. If they are able to free up the time to join us (I'm waiting for a reply to an email I just sent.), it would have to be on Saturday, November 1st. If they are unable to make the November 1st date, we can schedule any date that most of us prefer.

sorry to miss it if it is 11/1. board-o, are you combining the cali winery with the priorat winery as a singular offline, or are you speaking two different ones?

My wife and I are going to the October 30th celebration. It's by invitation only. I'm trying to see if she can join us for an offline on November 1st, the only Saturday she'll be in NYC on this trip. I'm guessing she probably won't be able to. In that case, we'll pick a date that's best for most of us.

My interpretation is one offline.

that would work better for the Brooklyn contingency

I still haven't heard back and I'll be out of the country til next week. As soon as I hear anything, we'll all pick a date, but if Marta can join us, I'm pretty sure it'll have to be November 1st.
