19th here. I'll be in Oregon doing a tour of wine country the 24th-28th.

Have you been there before? let me know if you need any recommendations. My wife and I went last October. Enjoy. Now back to the regularly scheduled thread.

We are most likely out of the off-line gig for a while, Natalie is at an age where off-lines are difficult, but hopefully we will host one again soon, down the road.

For anyone who needs my address, shoot an e-mail to SD_Wineaux (at) yahoo (dot) com or drop me a PM on Wino Depot.

What, you don't want to post your address for all to see after talking about a big brown box... Let me know if you want me to pick up the Prisoner in Encinitas for you, I'm heading over there before noon on Saturday.

This sounds like a great, tight-knit group willing to let new people experience great wines with them! I am really looking forward to going to my first off-line! I would feel welcome trying to attend on the 19th and I haven't even asked yet! However, the Paso Robles 25th Anniversary is the 19th and I sort of committed to being there. But I can't wait to join the community at an off-line very soon...

I will be doing family out in the desert during the off-line. Hopefully I can make the next one..
Anyone going out to Vintage manana for their German/Spanish tasting?? Looks nice..

Just look in this section every month or so Dannyk8232.

Sounds like the 19th is pulling into a comfortable lead.

Wine Joe, assuming this is at my house, what time (if any) works for you?

I should be able to do the 19th. Not sure about the wife yet, as it will depend on babyu sitter availability. The time of day should not be a critical factor for me on the 19th.

SD Wineaux: If you are hosting, I think you should just declare a day and time(now that everyone has had a chance to weigh in), and we can all go about finalizing schedules and confirming that we are in or out.

Sorry I have not been participating in the conversation. I have been out of town this week.

Alright, I declare 5/19 as the winner of the voting, to be held at our house. A 2pm start time has been popular lately, so we'll stick with that.

So firm up those plans and we'll get a solid head count a little closer to the event.

I should be able to make it. Will know with certainty soon. My wife is 50-50 at this point.

Hey Guys, brand new to the forum, Im down in Chula Vista at the Olympic Training Center. Im in love with wine and looking to join for some offline tastings.Im heavily involved on the Wine Library TV forums, and tried to fish up some San Diego wine lovers for tastings but was directed to the spectator forums. Looks like you guys have a great thing going! I look forward to meeting you all at some point!

Hi, Caleb!

I'll second the welcome, Caleb. You are certainly more than welcome to join us on the 19th if you're available (same goes for you, Darlene ). Otherwise, stay tuned for future threads.

That sounds really bad. Word choice is everything.

Thanks, SD! Have a prior committment or I'd be sorely tempted!

Hello San Diego wine lovers. I'm new to the boards here, how does an 'offline' work? And where is the one on the 19th being held? (no need for the specific address, but a City name might help).
Is there a theme, price range, vintage, number of bottles to bring, food to bring? etc etc etc... Cheers!

veiwpoint, contact the host at the email provided below.

Is there a theme nope, price range ~$40 as a point of reference, but we've gone under and over, vintage any that's ready, number of bottles to bring 1 per person attending, food to bring appetizer of your choice? etc etc etc... Cheers!

And as spo suggested, shoot me an e-mail for the specifics.

I think it's time for a roll call...we're in for 2!

Just checking in for roll call.

If we're still on, I'm in, but may be a little late.

We're definitely still on! BTW, if the sitter is an issue don't forget that my daughter will be here. Not as satisfying as completely getting away for awhile, but...

Have fun all. I wish I could be there, but duty calls. My weekend availability should improve in the second half of the year.
Cheers,
Red guy

I wont be able to make this one, prior wine related commitment, but im in for the next!

Confirmed so far:
Me

Anyone else?
