Suddenly... NYC

[MLipton]

I’ll be blowing into town next Wed. Anyone interested in joining me Wed night for an outing to Racines?

[Jeff Grossman]

I'm in!

 

[Jayson Cohen]

This one is going to be tough for me, however tempting.

 

[Jay Miller]

I'll try but I won't know until Tuesday if I can make it or not.

You know Racines isn't BYO on Wednesday, right? Not that there isn't plenty to order off the list.

 

[MLipton]

Jay, I hope you can make it. I’ll be ordering off the list regardless as I’ll be flying in the night before and not checking any luggage.

Mark Lipton

 

[Jay Miller]

Yes, it would be great to meet after all these years. My only regret is not being able to open something nice for you.

 

[Jeff Grossman]

We know the owners, right? Perhaps they can setup a special list for the evening....

The list is certainly quite good, but I'm sure you know that flying in without wine is not necessarily an excuse to not bring wine. There happens to be a pretty decent wine shop just down the the street.

Most true. And that’s another reason I want to go there, killing two birds with one stone.

Okay, I can make it on Wednesday. Let me know if you get BYO permission.

I am not sure how it's priced, but I believe I spotted an 89 Baudry Chinon "Domaine" on the list there not too long ago. There was a Chambers dinner involving the winemaker last year, where this wine was outstanding. It's not 89 Grezeaux but the gap was smaller than I had ever imagined.

Perhaps they'll let you bring some bottles if you buy one or two off the list? Ask.

Verre De Terre. Eben Lillie should/may be back from france by then. If not Semi will take more than good care of you. The menu's a little light...

 

[MLipton]

Sad to say, I had to cancel this event due to unfortunate circumstances that will demand my attention elsewhere. Next time, folks, and thanks for all the input.

Da-yum!
