Montreal Off Line.. Yeah baby!
Ok who's willing to participate to this great biannual gathering? Moses said he wanted to come. We were aiming at the first week of November, 1st or 8th of November. Speak up! Say what you'd like to taste for theme and we'll arrange it. I don't mind receiving at my apartment too.

Bummer! I just bought tickets to go to New York for the Old & Odd gathering on November 7th. I don't think I can do two in quick succession... that'd be too much flying for me!

Re: Montreal Off Line.. Yeah baby!
Moses, is 92 Vintage too young for you?
A friend of mine would line up 6-7 of the vintage great Port and offer them at a very good price. I think this could be interesting to visit Fonseca, Taylor, Niepoort, Graham's, Warre's, Dow's and Vesuvio.

Re: Montreal Off Line.. Yeah baby!
I have 92 Croft to add. I think that may be a little young, but I know how it is in Montreal with selection. I am not too picky on the line-up, just looking to come up to Montreal and have a nice weekend.
I can get 70 Croft and 70 Sandeman mag's that would be fun, but feel a weird asking for money...
I could source some stuff, but would imagine I could only "safely" bring 4 bottles.
Still have to ask Elys and check hotels. I know there's a couple we could bring our dog.

Re: Montreal Off Line.. Yeah baby!
Can't do it, too much on my plate for the next couple of weekends (I was reminded of).
Sorry guys. I hope to get out there before the New Year, so let's see what happens.

It would be great if some of you Canadian
guys would come to Seattle to join us at the end of January. That way, you could meet a couple of dozen of us all at once. I promise you won't be disappointed by the Port and Douro wine selection either and some Madeira too. :hello:
