Yeah vine sampling does sound kinda dodgy xD,

Still would love to try this out as I love wine you'd need an epic size cheese board as well i'm afraid!

[GeorgeFoxtail]

may I'm too find some bottles in my cellar... a few years collected to share with all of you=^,^=
drinking alone is no fun

I have a friend who has recently conducted fieldwork in Borneo. Perhaps I can convince him to bring some vines from the rain forests there? 

Jokes aside, though, I will definitely try to make it to this event. Who am I to turn down alcohol? *lol* But do we have a connoisseur (no, not a lush  ) with the necessary knowledge who can introduce the wines for us?

[SenGrisane]

Uncle Kage has agreed to do talk about the white vine.

But we'd still need an expert on red vine.

(Btw. What would be the proper English term for "Weinverkostung?"

I said:

  j/k that sounds awesome. Don't know who could do the red wines though. And about your German word, I have no idea O.o Google translate simply says wine tasting, is that what you're after?

Please, people... it's WINE. With a "w" I know it's confusing, because wine is made from grapes, which grow on vines in a vineyard. So ethymologically, the two words have a certain common ancestry. But today, "wine" is the beverage, and "vine" is a certain type of plant

Oh stop v(h)ining! 

Haha sorry, I couldn't resist. I'll shut up now and stop derailing the thread.

Didn't you know small typos are the best way to attract more readers? ;3

Would be funny if, after all these typos, someone actually would show up with a piece of vine and say "Here, have a bite of this".

Or vine wine.. though, I do wonder how that would work out.

best typo ever xD

Vine sampling anyone ?

[Kamikaze]

Vine sampling anyone ?

Yush!!

[SenGrisane]

Time flies ^^

I have talked with the winemaker and I think I will be able to bring about 25-30 bottles. He will also give me some flyers about the wine for people to read about.
I also have a ride now which allows me transport.

Now that the two main problems are solved

My remaining questions are:
Are there any other people interested in bringing wine for this?
We still need an expert for red wine. Does anyone know one?
How do I get this event approved? Is there some form to fill out for these kind of things?

[SenGrisane]

Hello?

Nobody interested in this anymore? I am not gonna buy a ton of wine if I am not sure it will get used.
