14 of you for lunch...should be a loooong afternoon

 

[RooFlyer]

1:30 and I just ducked out. 4 courses to go.

Is this better, steady? Aged dry country Grenache . Like they used to do 20 years ago. Now SW room only purchase.

Seems a number of CellarTracker members cannot read - the bottle photos for the recent listings (other than the 2015’s) are of the Moppa Springs...

New name for the cane cut Semillon

A lovely mantlepiece decoration ( and I don't mean the flowers)

How far ahead does one have to book for a Stonewallers lunch?

Basket Press Shiraz ( dont take this as gospel. Tasted after the '92 at lunch!)
Black Shiraz
Rifle Range Cabernet Sauv

Depends on number of pax and the day. Todd has just told me Thursday is more available than Friday or Saturday. 6 months to be pretty sure for 4 people, shorter for Thursday.

All of 2020 available for booking now.

Oops sorry didn't look before we left. I'll let you know when the order arrives home

Love to hear your thoughts on 3 of the new releases @RooFlyer (a simple thumbs up / down / sideways .... would be great)

Basket Press Shiraz
Black Shiraz
Rifle Range Cabernet Sauv

Starting from the bottom
Good
Better
Best

The last few years I have booked 12 months out but I was able to do a change of date to a Saturday about 8 months ago IIRC.
Are you a Stone Wall member now BC?
I only ask because you need to be one to book.
