Host: Larry
with wines of Sonoma
at
Melisse
Santa Monica, CA
Theme: Sonoma, Not Pomona, Not Yer Sister Ramona
Patriots: Larry, Kay, Dave L., Gail, Brad, Cathy, Dan, Debby, A. David
My tasting rating (0-10): 9
Sorry Larry, but if it wasn't for all the problems
we had dealing with the venue, this could have
approached the lofty 10-ness rating. A little more prior
planning would have put this wine tasting over the top.

Factoid: Koala bears take three days to digest their food.
That's why they sleep so much. Therefore, all Hawaiians
must be Koala bears.
Cathy: Larry, you have served me two perfect wines;
this '94 Kistler Chardonnay and the 1997 Screaming Eagle.
Gail: On your knees, woman!
(I may have heard this out of context.)
Larry: I brought an extra bottle of Champagne
just for Gail and Cathy. That should keep them quiet.
(I may have heard this out of context too.)
Not bad for the first time out
of the chute, Larry! But next time...
