Wine
- Thread starter ikileo
- Start date
guys, so when would be good for you all for the next meeting? maybe something casual like at Le Chasseur where we can get as many people involved as possible.
I was there 1 1/2 weeks ago and ate till I died for just over $20. Great stuff.
If you have glasses please bring them.
Let's set a date? Next weekend perhaps?
Date: 11th/12th Feb
Location: Le Chasseur
Ave $: $25 per pax
Minimum requirement: Anyone who is interested in wine (noobs to pros)
Theme: Bordeaux Blends [wines can be from bordeaux or any other country as long as they contain bordeaux grape as described below]
Wine value: $50-$100
Plus 1: Highly encouraged.
Theme explanation:
For this theme, you can bring any wine (red, white, dessert) from bordeaux or has the same types of grapes as a bordeaux.
Red: Must be Cabernet or Merlot dominant (at least 50%), the rest can be any past or present bordeaux grape (limited to only either: cab franc, petit verdot, malbec or carmenere - You can have a 100% cab or a 100% merlot if you like also.)
White: Must be a blend of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc, muscadelle is optional.
Dessert: Must be a dessert wine made from 100% semillon grapes
For those who are new and seem intimidated, don't worry, the safest thing you can do is just buy a red/white/dessert wine from the Bordeaux region or go to a wine store and ask for a bordeaux blend; they should know what you are talking about
Let me know if ANY of you are uncomfortable with the food/location/price/wine cost/theme. you can PM me or whatever 'cos I don't want to alienate people who want to start trying out new wines but not comfortable buying a $50< wine.
ONE LAST THING: ALL WINES SERVED WILL BLIND

Party
Interesting, can you PM me details if this party is on?
Would be interesting to know where you get good Bordeaux for that range in Singapore as I had just relocated back here. I ended up forming my own wine club and import direct from Negociants as I find the supply here generally very bad... I'll bring a bottle of Grand Cru Classe if my shipment is in time, if not , a bottle of Grand Cru.

sure thing. it's best you let me know if you are confirmed in for those 2 dates and whether you are bringing a +1 (encouraged). i had forgotten to put on my first post that the bordeaux blends can come from bordeaux or any other country that uses a similar blend.
lastly the wines will all be served blind
HI Guys, I can't make it for this event as i got Dinner event for both nights.
oooh, was going to say 12th is ok night time.
Lunch is generally not possible as my schedule is just too hectic.
And The thoguht of running away after 5 mins of sitting down is not too conducive ha ha. But if majority of you can make it lunch then go ahead, I can always jump into the next one.
aww man...sorry for that change 'cos most of 'em can't make it at night.
Keep yourself booked for the next one!
I be bringing my Wife along. Need to hunt for the Wine...
