Montreal Left Bank Tasting

Hi, can my hubby and myself join?

Since this is my first time can you tell me what one has to bring if anything?



Thanks

MissMargaux,
You are most welcome !!
Please see your e-mail at the hotmail account you had provided in another thread.

As for what you have to bring, it is simple:
1 bottle per person.
We have no $$ amount, you bring what you like, or like to share or want to try.
Our offlines are usually done blind so please do not mention what you are bringing. We will bag the wines at the restaurant. If you do bag before, please use a standard SAQ paper bag.
Someone usually brings a dessert wine
Someone also brings a sauternes for the foie gras dish.

If you want to contribute to one of those wines please mention it so we don't fight to much as to which one we will open !!

That's it !

See you there !

Was just perusing the CT listing, trying to find something just right for this one!

I'm getting in the mood. Holidays are coming on and this should be good!

BTW: I'd be happy to offer up an add'l stickie as well for this one, if you're still looking.

I'd be tempted to make another trip to Montreal for this, since I'm beginning to develop a worrying fondness for aged bordeaux, but we have something else that evening, and we'll have some other travel expenses around year end. Maybe in Feb or March though....

You always have a standing invitation, Bman. We've had some other offlines that we did not post as we were pretty packed from the get-go but I've added your email to our initial email lists for future offlines in case you're free a weekend to come and drink/taste with us.

Decided to offer up a 2003 Baumard Quarts de Chaume for one of the dessert wines.(I'm assuming these aren't blind)
If this works, just let me know.

Ya, like we are going to kick a gift horse in the mouth !!

Of course it's ok !!

Thanks bud! It will be the new year before we're ready to travel again, though it might be later as our son is back at Waterloo in January so trips will be in that direction rather than east.

I will be contributing one 750ml bottle of Chateau Bel Air-Prestige ste-croix du mont 2004
if that is ok as desert wine.
