ORIGINAL: ChrisinSunnyside I'm of the opinion I like the company, the food, and the wine; usually in that order. While I am a wino who enjoys focused wine tasting, when I gather with friends, I'm usually more there for the social aspect, so stressing about pour size, etc... is not something I do. FWIW, my experience with CTers, coast to coast is that we are an overly generous group, and there is always enough, more than enough, wine, and if I miss a taste on a particular wine, there are always several other bottles of delicious wine there on the dais looking for a friend. I am that friend. Yesterday, we had a small group, 5, opened 6-7 bottles I think, and everyone brought bottles we never even opened. Granted not a formal tasting looking for verticals, blind scoring etc..., but when it was all said and done extremely satisfying for my experience. Amen! Agree, it’s all about the camaraderie. FWIW, there was more than enough wine go around. Some of every wine was left and bottles in abundance unopened.
