Brown Bag dinners are always a good time. Despite the fact that I am rumoured to have been drinking wine for half a centruary I seldom get this sort of thing right, but no doubt its educational along the way.
For those who have not attended one before, you bring along a bottle wrapped up and we evaluated them together. Its a little easier with this theme because we know that its got to have come from Montalcino and is Sangiovese. After that - its a bit of a race to see whats best.
After voting (and drinking) we unmask them. This is the part where I am usually miles off,,,
By way of a benchmark I am bring a Capanno BdM 2013 Riserva. I suggest we keep the theme to 2018 and older. I am happy to help out if you dont have anything to hand.
Because there is no minimum to fill this type of event, the date is confirmed with the venue. Please note - your booking is only confirmed once you have made payment for your booking. This is especially important with high demand dinners such as this.
- We will supply fizz on arrival and cover all glassware costs.
- Please let me know what you are bringing so I can curate the lineup. {I promise not to cheat} ...
