Ah, a man after my own tastes; and I grew up in the Napa Valley. When I
became aware of Napa wines (in the 60's) you could count the wineries on
your fingers. When I left Napa 20 years ago there were over 600 (Is
Planet of the Grapes still around?)! Everybody was planting Chardonnay,
Merlot wasn't talked about in polite company, and Sterling Vineyards
introduced the disgusting practice of charging for tasting.

Wine at ROC BBQ's must be kept at lakebed temperatures. You wouldn't
want to get a brain-freeze when guzzling a paper cup of it. Red wines
are great; or maybe I'm thinking of redlines.

Oh, and those little bottles with the screw caps are good too.

My guess is all I can contribute to the pot luck is some decent
(depending on your tastes) wine. Keeping it decent in the wake of temps
out there could be a challenge. Easier to take some Rieslings and
Gewürztraminers as they can be kept cold.
No. I will not bring Twisted Oak as I prefer to hoard that for myself...
;D
BTW: Is Twisted Oak the official wine of R.O.C.? It should be for
obvious reasons.
Is El Jefe coming? (Not me! Though I fit!) Will he bring me some PigStai
to share?
BTW: I am staying the official Inn in Barstow... is anyone else? Meetup
for drinks and a BS session in Barstow Friday? Anyone?
