ReVolt bases global operations in Portland
Send this to a friend
- Erik Siemers
- Business Journal staff writer
When ReVolt Technology AS arrived in Portland a year ago this month, the battery technology company declared the city home to its U.S. headquarters.
Its global headquarters was in Switzerland.
That's changed.
"(Portland) has been our de facto world headquarters from late last year," ReVolt CEO James McDougall said via email.
The 20,940-square-foot facility, at 11855 N.E. Glen Widing Dr. is split almost equally between office space and area for labs, pilot production and warehousing space.
ReVolt employs 18, a figure McDougall expects to grow to 23 by the end of the year and to 50 sometime in 2012.
ReVolt was built out of a technology developed out of Trondheim, Norway-based SINTEF, Scandinavia's largest independent research organization.
The company is developing a zinc-air battery technology it believes can deliver twice the energy of conventional rechargeable battery technologies, such as lithium-ion.
Using an abundant resource such as zinc — which is already used to power products such as computers and cellphones — lowers manufacturing costs and cuts pollution, since it can degrade into environmentally friendly substances.
ReVolt is technically incorporated in Norway, where it's owned by its venture capital backers, but its global headquarters had been based in Switzerland.
McDougall, a Portland resident, said ReVolt decided late last year to relocate its primary locations to countries with a healthy investment climate for renewable energy technology.
The company also opened operations in Germany and China.
It initially chose Portland for the city's skilled workforce, an attractive living environment, an airport that allowed for international travel, the ability to recruit talent here and a "progressive ecosystem that is willing to invest in and scale renewable energy generation and storage solutions."

'American Horror Story: Asylum' Sets Season 2 Premiere Date, Plus New Details Emerge
American Horror Story Season 2 will premiere on Oct. 17 -- just in time to get some last minute Halloween inspiration.
The second season of the FX anthology, which takes place in the 1960s at Briarcliff mental institution, stars Jessica Lange as Sister Jude, the administrator of the ill-fated asylum. This season, viewers can expect to encounter aliens, Nazis and a serial killer named Bloody Face, reports Entertainment Weekly.
What else can fans expect in Season 2?
In May, showrunner Ryan Murphy revealed that Evan Peters, who played "ultimate badass bad boy" Tate Langdon, will be "the hero of the show" in the second season. Murphy recently tweeted about Peters' pivotal role: "Contrary to rumors, Evan is in all episodes of AHS this season."
Now, we know that Peters will play Kit, an inmate and extra-terrestrial believer, who'll be subjected to Sister Jude's unorthodox punishments.
Fans can also expect Season 1 stars Zachary Quinto, Lily Rabe and Sarah Paulson to make an appearance on Season 2. Quinto returns as Dr. Thredson, whose progressive ways clash with Jude's harsh philosophy and treatments.
Meanwhile, Chloe Sevigny, Maroon 5 frontman and The Voice mentor Adam Levine and James Cromwell are joining the cast for the second season. Sevigny will play a woman whose husband sends her away to the asylum because she likes sex. And Levine told E!Online, "I'm newly married, and I go with my wife on our honeymoon," Levine teased.
"It is absolutely terrifying," Levine told Entertainment Weekly. "Very gruesome."
Cromwell will take on the roll of Nazi Dr. Arden, who uses the patients as his own test subjects, subjecting them to cruel and inhumane procedures.

- How to Read a Study Record
Background Prevention of contrast media (CM) induced nephropathy (CIN) by pharmacological prophylaxis (e.g. N–acetylcysteine; NAC) is controversially discussed. So far, in all interventional studies assessment of kidney function was based on measurements of serum creatinine although this surrogate biomarker has several limitations. We investigated the antioxidants NAC and zinc (Zn) for the prevention of CIN by monitoring concomitantly serum levels of creatinine and cystatin C.
Chronic Kidney Failure
Drug: Acetylcysteine
Drug: Zinc
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Double-Blind
Primary Purpose: Prevention
|Official Title:
|Improved Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate by Serum Cystatin C in Preventing Contrast Induced Nephropathy by N-Acetylcysteine or Zinc

In a prospective, placebo-controlled, double blind trial patients with moderate impaired kidney function receiving hypoosmolar, nonionic contrast medium were randomly assigned to an oral treatment for 2 days with 1.2g/day of NAC (n=19), for 1 day with 60mg/day of Zn (n=18) or placebo (n=17). All patients were periprocedural hydrated with 1ml/kg/h of 0.45% saline for 24h. At baseline (before hydration), prior to exposure of CM as well as 2 and 6 days after CM serum levels of creatinine and cystatin C have been measured.

About us
The Trillion community is growing in size and confidence and demand is building for renewable investments going into 2014. Already some of our more experienced members have started to use the website to source and select ways to put some of their money into renewables.
In the case of our own funders we have around £1m of pledges in place to 'kick-start' the crowd investing. Access to the best opportunities is core to the proposition, so there is an immediate strategic requirement to build a great directory which will set out every possible way of investing in renewable energy.
We need a good range and choice of investment opportunities so that members can diversify their risk and so that we can convert as many visits as possible into investments. These will generate a small fee for us, which will in turn finance our operating costs. In addition to identifying a range of good investments, commercial agreements (fees etc) will need to be concluded between Trillion Fund and each product partner, providing Trillion Fund with early revenues and demonstrating the market potential that underpins our business model.
Where we are now
Trillion Fund has mapped the retail investment landscape for renewables in the UK, and created a database that includes contacts in most renewable investment funds, developers, asset owners and corporates/corporate advisers.
The founding team, including Tom Hill-Norton and Julia Groves, have both a strong network and track record in the sector. Equally the publishing team, led by Rebecca O'Connor are rapidly growing both their own understanding and the profile and credibility of Trillion Fund as the authority on retail investments into renewable energy.
Feedback to date has been extremely positive, and every indication is that Trillion can very quickly add value by recruiting investors for third parties and that there is potential for exclusive raises on bespoke terms in the future when we have proven our abilities. The new directory design is now live and will be improved over the summer.
We have a handful of commercial agreements in place providing Trillion with our first revenues as fees for investments into products partners products, and a recent funding round of £1.2m has provided the working capital required to support the hire of a Head of Investment to develop the renewable energy directory and play a lead role in the business.
Role and Responsibilities
Leveraging the assets and traction that the team has built to date, the Head of Investment will have support from the Managing Director Julia Groves to convert investor interest and a pipeline of opportunities into a proper revenue generating business.
The role has five key responsibilities:
- Knowing the market: Building relationships with all the key companies (and funds) investing in or developing renewable energy assets. Knowing about new raises as soon as or before they come out and establishing Trillion's credibility in the sector.
- Negotiating
deals: Concluding commercial
terms agreements with product partners, pitching our investor recruitment
capability, proposing and negotiating terms for fundraising that align with our
business model. Finessing terms to support Trillion's business, the needs of
our product partners and the needs of the investors. Maximising revenues and
margins for Trillion. Going on to develop investments proactively based on our
member's needs (2014).
- Developing
strategy: Revising thinking
and modelling based on new experience and data points as they come in, to
ensure forecasts are accurate, and that the team focuses their efforts in the
right areas and the revenue comes in. Considering up-front and trail fees,
gross and net rates, fixed fees and % etc. to establish the most profitable
revenue whilst delivering the best returns for investors. (Note: The product
strategy will also evolve over time as we extend our market into energy
efficiency and other sustainable investments.)
- Optimising
the directory: Ensuring that
all investment opportunities are accurately and well presented in the
directory. Working with the design team at Trillion and the product partners to
ensure the best possible user journey and consequently conversion rate from
browser to investor.
- Regulatory Compliance: Work with the compliance officer, MD and product partners to ensure we are at all times working within our permissions. Establishing a light-touch due diligence process that meets our regulatory obligations (reviewing directory partners and projects and ensuring we are clear at all times who is signing off the financial promotion). Then thinking through and effecting the 'switch' from being a client-led to a customer-led business, including potential changes to permissions required (e.g. direct authorisation, advice etc).
Please note: Whilst this role is not directly revenue generating, the ability of the business to generate fees is entirely dependent on there being sufficient product of the right mix and quality in the directory. In addition, the Head of Investment will become co-MD of the business going forward, with the current MD reducing her scope accordingly.
A not on regulation: Trillion is an Appointed Representative of Abundance NRG Ltd, permitting us to operate in this field within the scope of the FCA authorisations. A condition of our Appointed Representative agreement with Abundance Generation is that we do not create our own investment products. This means that we can only negotiate products for our investors that are structured by product partners or by Abundance NRG on our behalf and on a revenue sharing basis. Trillion will be working towards its own direct authorisation by mid 2014, with its own platform to handle investments.
About you (The important part!)
- A credible track record in investment, ideally in renewable energy (retail experience advantageous)
- Strong understanding of finance including modelling ability (and happy to roll your sleeves up and do it yourself for the first phase)
- Leadership skills and experience of growing an early stage business
- Understanding of project finance (or ability to learn very quickly) and ability to do high level due diligence on investment opportunities - split the wheat from the chaff.
- Current or prior FCA authorisation (CF1, CF30, etc) an advantage.
- Ability to quickly build credibility and relationships - any existing network in investments and renewables in particular very beneficial
- Proven ability to negotiate deals – this person must be a closer
- Motivated by disruptive business models and doing things for the first time.
- A good understanding of commission and introducer fees and regulations around that - and an appetite to find alternatives
- Strategic thinker who can work with the Board, advisor and other senior members of the team to develop the strategy.
- Team player, with broad skills and experience of the all-hands-on-deck moments that often arise in start ups
Compensation & Other Details
- Salary will be dependent on experience and equity mix. Likely range £70,000-£85,000
- The role will need to be full time within six months but could start part time (salary to be paid pro-rata and equity would be dependent on a long term commitment)
- Options package of 3-5% initially, with potential for further options to be negotiated via the EMI scheme in 2014 and depending on performance
- A performance related component would be added in due course
- A generous 30 days holiday a year
- Located at The Hub on Haymarket, London Piccadilly
Trillion Fund remains an early stage, pre-profit business with enough funding to run for 12-18 months at the current burn rate. Revenue will be key to cashflow.
The right candidate will feel this is the perfect time to join the business – late enough that all the groundwork has been done, and there is sufficient funding to pay salaries, but still early enough to shape the business and earn a meaningful stake.
The risks remain high, but we think the opportunity to democratise finance and decentralise energy in the UK is quite a prize...

Virginia has removed Missouri Virginia State Police - Concealed Handgun - Reciprocity and Recognition from the list of states they honor. I do not know the reason why they removed Missouri. Missouri honors all other states permit/licenses. This is what the Virginia Citizens Defense League Virginia Citizens Defense League | Defending Your Right to Defend Yourself sent out in an updated about this:
Missouri concealed handgun permits are no longer honored in Virginia. I have not yet had time to see what happened. But we need to fix this situation permanently by honoring ALL other permits. VCDL will work yet again to get such a bill passed during the next General Assembly session.
The Missouri AG was still listing Nevada and Virginia as states that honor their Permit/License to Carry. I contacted them last Friday and Monday they updated their listing. The Missouri AG doesnt have someone watching all those other states. They were listing those states to assist their residents to keep them informed of where their Missouri Permit/License was valid. I sent the email because people were emailing me telling me Handgunlaw.us had incorrect data and that NV honored MO. One guy got very nasty. Sent them to Nevada Department of Public Safety to see for themselves. Never got an apology from the nasty guy. I have to say I have only gotten three emails like that over the years and all were just misinformed. UPDATE: I got a very nice email (9/19/13) from the MO AGs Office thanking me for pointing out that they still listed NV and VA. Very nice to hear from them and the Thank You was very much appreciated.
But then the Alabama AG has not updated his website State of Alabama | Office of the Attorney General Starting Aug 1 Alabama honored all other states. His website doesnt show that. No reply from an email to him on why the delay on updating his site. One AL Sheriff has it worded on his FAQs Madison County Alabama Sheriff's Department - Pistol Permit Frequently Asked Questions Another has the new law posted on his site. http://www.montgomerysheriff.com/Sit...Gun%20Bill.pdf I know the difficulties of keeping info up to date and States have a lot more pages to watch over than I do. Many times they just need a heads up and they take care of it. Cant fix something if you dont know its broken.

Small Vented Enclosure Loudspeaker Systems for Speech Reinforcement
Small direct-radiator loudspeakers with surface areas in the order of 10-2 m2, in enclosures with volumes in the order of 10-3 m3, are used for speech reinforcement. Although the high QT of such speakers makes use of Thiel's alignments difficult, vented-enclosure cabinets which enhance performance can be designed by means of computer simulation of a small speaker model.

The FAA has issued a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) advising owners and operators of all transport category aircraft with Weber Aircraft LLC seats models 4001, 4004, 5150, 5200, 6002, 6200, 7001, 7501, 7502, 8000 and 8001 installed, that the rear track fittings, part number 840620-401/-403, can potentially be installed incorrectly.
There have been several reports of loose seat installations that could be related to improper rear seat track fitting installations and/or maintenance. During installation of the seat, the rear fitting's shear plunger may not properly engage due to improper care and maintenance. Weber Aircraft LLC has developed MOD KIT–TRACK FITTING INSPECTION, Drawing 867330, Revision B, dated October 26, 2012, to aide the owner and operators of the affected model aircraft in reviewing inservice parts. The SIL also provides detailed inspection instructions to establish serviceability.
The FAA recommends that owners and operators of the transport category aircraft listed above review Weber Aircraft LLC Drawing 867330, Revision B, dated October 26, 2012, and inspect the seat installations for loose seats and incorrectly installed fittings.
The FAA said in the SAIB that "this airworthiness concern has not been determined to be an unsafe condition that would warrant the issuance of an airworthiness directive (AD)."

Limited Budget HotelPosted Aug 31, 2014
This is a fine hotel if you are on a limited budget. The rooms are tiny and the staff mostly 20-30 who are somewhat clueless. The rooms are clean the bathrooms fine and the neighborhood great. Forget the free breakfast -bagels and coffee you can get on the street.

Convenient to nearby attractions and subwayPosted Mar 20, 2014
Pros: The staff are very friendly. They were helpful in recommending places to eat, provided directions to the subway, and upgraded our room for free.
Cons: The cable went out during every night of our stay, but this was an issue with the cable, not the hotel itself.
Location: There are two subway lines a couple blocks from the hotel. Walking distance to the Empire State Building, Times Square, and Madison Square Garden.
We had an overall pleasant experience at this hotel. The rooms are a bit small, but that was to be expected for New York. The details said that there was a continental breakfast, but it is very limited, and there isn't really anywhere to eat it unless you wanted to take it back up to your room. The staff are very friendly and the rooms were kept clean.

Not much going on at IPFW these days, but away from Fort Wayne -- whew!
The Mastodons are on the road big time, starting tonight.
The men's basketball team takes its 4-3 record to Annapolis, Md., to play Navy (3-4) tonight, and in the process, the Mastodons are looking for their third straight win.
The women's basketball team will wait until Thursday to play, when it visits Carbondale, Ill. for a 1 p.m. game against Southern Illinois (0-4). Although the women (2-3) lost at Indiana 64-47 recently, they outscored the Hoosiers in the second half, 27-26.
But the biggest road contest of the week comes Thursday at 8:30 p.m. when the women's volleyball team visits Ames, Iowa, for an NCAA first round match with Iowa State.
IPFW has a 25-6 record, and Iowa State is 20-7, which includes a 12-1 record at home.

District Attorney Mike Harson has sworn in a new assistant district attorney to handle traffic and DUI cases. Celeste White took the oath of office earlier this week. She will replace Greg Williams, who resigned last week. Williams and his secretary, Denease Curry, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bribery in connection with a scheme in which employees in the district attorney's office took cash to dismiss OWI cases. White is an LSU Law School graduate and was admitted to the Louisiana Bar in 2009.

A high school teacher in Collinsville, Ala., was arrested this morning on charges of harassing communications involving an adult target, DeKalb County Sheriff Jimmy Harris said in a news release.
Harris said the sheriff's office took a report a little over a week ago regarding allegations of harassment by Marvin Goza, 37, of Gadsden, Ala., and obtained an arrest warrant. He said deputies arrested Goza at school today.
He did not identify the content of the harassing communication or the target, except to say none of the allegations involved juveniles or students.
Harris said the office is investigating information about other possible offenses.

History Lyrics - Groove Armada
(feat. Will Young)
I'm sorry the way that I am,
I'm turnin' away from the past,
I'm lookin' for a better place,
I'm lonely but finding my way... around...
So wrong, it's just history repeating;
it keeps following me around.
So wrong, I'm sick of history repeating;
Because it keeps turning me around.
It's starting to push at my mind.
Forget all the things that I took with me.
I'm throwing away all my dreams...
Dreams, dreams, dreams...
So wrong, it's just history repeating;
it keeps following me around.
So wrong, it's just history repeating;
History repeating.
So long.

Rihanna in the latest MAC Viva Glam campaign
Life's not all beaches and bikinis for Rihanna (although a glimpse at her Instagram feed may suggest otherwise). In a case of bad gal gone good, the popstar has teamed up with MAC cosmetics for the brand's latest Viva Glam campaign, which raises money for people affected by HIV and AIDS.
Rihanna follows in the footsteps of Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga as spokesperson for MAC's Viva Glam line, which launched in 1994 with a campaign featuring drag queen RuPaul. In the latest campaign, a platinum-haired Rihanna poses topless, sporting a slick of frosted red Viva Glam lipstick. The entire sale price (minus tax) of the lipstick and matching lipglass go to the MAC AIDs fund, which helps to support men, women and children affected by HIV and AIDs all over the world.
Since its launch the fund has raised more than $315 million purely through sales of the limited-edition lipsticks and lipglasses, and this year it has pledged to donate $2 million to the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDs, which will help to expand HIV testing and treatment programs for young people worldwide. "I'm honored to join forces with the M·A·C AIDS Fund and UNAIDS in the fight against AIDS," Rihanna commented. "I want to help reach as many young people around the world as I can."
The fund will have no problem reaching its target if Rihanna's previous collaborations with MAC are anything to go by. The singer's limited-edition RiRi Hearts MAC make-up collections sparked an online frenzy – her cult red RiRi Woo lipstick sold out in three hours.
With their creamy, blue-red frosted shades and covetable packaging (complete with Rihanna's signature), we predict the Viva Glam collection will be similarly sought-after. And if helping to cure AIDs isn't a good enough excuse for a new lippie, we don't know what is.
VIVA GLAM Rihanna lipstick, £15, and lipglass, £14, are available at MAC counters now.
Rihanna shared this Instagram snap of the products, with the caption 'VIVAGLAMrihanna is available NOW!!! Only at MACcosmetics.com !!! The reason this particular lipstick collection is so special to me, is that @maccosmetics makes sure that EVERY PENNY you spend on a #VIVAGLAM lipstick goes directly to the #MACAIDSFUND which helps men, women, children and families affected by HIV/AIDS!! Thank you ladies for your support #macgirlzRule' (Instagram @badgalriri)

Approaching Wine at the French Laundry???
Background Information: Hi! I am new to Chowhound and this is my first post so bear with me. My husband and I are visting the San Francisco area next week (April 21-25). We will be spending the first two nights in Yountville and the last two nights in SFO.
I was lucky enough to score reservations at the French Laundry on Thursday, April 22nd @ 6:00 and am thrilled. Although, I am very perplexed about the how to approach the wine part of the evening. My husbad and I enjoy many different wines, but are certainly not "experienced" in wine, as many seem to be in the Napa area.
I have viewed the wine list online, and to be perfectly honest, I don't know that I am familiar with many, if any, of the wines on the list. I also called the restaurant to inquire about a pairing, since no pairing information is listed on the website. I was told that they do a pairing, but since the menu changes everyday, the pairing changes as well and to expect a cost of around 250/pp for wine pairing.
Although the pairing seems inticing, I am not interest in spending 500 on wine. Ideally, I would like to stay in the 200-300 price range for the two of us.
Oh, and I have reasearched the other post on here about TFL, but it seems that the questions dealing with the wine at TFL are several years old.
The Questions:
1. Is 200-300 total a reasonable amount to spend on wine from TFL, meaning will we be able to drink throughout the meal reasonable wine?
2. Should I consider bringing my own wine and fork over the $50/bottle corkage?
3. Should I give the "captain" an amount that we would like to spend on wine and allow him/her to select for us?
4. Should I try to select wine upfront from the wine list? If this seems to be the best choice, how should I approach it seeing as I am unfamiliar with the majority of wines on the list?
Any and all help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance!
The French Laundry
6640 Washington Street, Yountville, CA 94599
re: wolfe
A 2nd on option #3. $200-$300 should be enough for two people. You won't save much on BYOB and you don't get the expert advice on pairing with the meal. No shame in setting a limit on the amount since you will be dropping major coin.
#3 would also allow you the option of buying by the glass which allows flexibility w/o having to buy a whole bottle. 2 glasses of champagne, another 2 of something for the front end of the meal and maybe a full bottle or more glasses is doable.
They also have a nice selection of half bottles so you can get some variety. I agree with others #3. Have a wonderful time.
All agree on #3. The reason you don't recognize many of the wines is TFL has access in Napa valley - and around the world - which is unimaginable to mere mortals. Going there and not drinking the wines would be as beside the point as bringing your own salt.
That being said, you really should consider option 5, just go with the pairings. Just think about how much $200 is really worth compared to the $800 you'll be putting down, and the rest of your stay there, and how much you might enjoy the pairings. They might consider allowing you to split a pairing, that is, the one of you who drinks orders it, and the one who sips, well, takes a sip.
I believe Manresa has about the same price for their premium pairings, as does Le Bernardine in NYC (whose pairings were sublime).
But, typically, a couple might get two half bottles over the course of the evening. When I was there last, that was $500, and we would have been better served by the pairings. You can certainly tell the staff your budget - clearly the right way to go. They're so warm and friendly there - they'll find you exactly the best wine for your budget.
Manresa Restaurant
320 Village Lane, Los Gatos, CA 95030
re: bbulkow
All good advice. I've shared wine pairings at other restaurants and never had a problem. Some restaurants will even split the pours into two glasses, and I would be surprised if TFL wouldn't do that for you. Have a wonderful time, and don't forget to leave time before dinner to check out the gardens.
re: wew
Another vote for #3 with an addition.
* tell the sommelier your price ceiling for the meal
* tell him of some wines you really enjoy (eg. white Burgundies; French Bordeaux , Champagne, Calif Cabs, Zins, etc etc) . That will give the sommelier an idea of your flavor palette, profile and preferences. ( The last and only time we went to FL, we gave our wine budget for 3 people ($300) and our likes: Rose Champagne to start; white Burgundy as the focus; red Tempranillo from Spain for the meat course. The sommelier mixed glasses of champagne; full bottle of white Burgundy and 1/2 bottle of Tempranillo within our budget.)
With a definite budget and clear preferences, you will get wonderful recommendations!
Have fun.
re: cortez
Yes to Option #3, and Cortez has added helpful tips.
OK, I'm going to stray from the others. Option #2 is the best and here is my reason: I am a wine and food lover but I am unwilling to pay $100 + for a bottle of wine unless it is 2x better than a $50 bottle. The markup at TFL is outrageous. It is over 100% and that is ridiculous. They get away with it because of the comments from others who see themselves with few options. If enough of us bring our own wine and reject this pricing scheme, restaurants like TFL will come to their senses. And, in this economy with 12% unemployment, they need to get real. Bring your own, pay the corkage. Vote with our wallet.
re: tstrum
I thought the wine was to complement the food. How does one do that if you don't know what your meal is beforehand?
re: tstrum
I do not find the mark up at FL outrageous. Am I to assume you never order wine at a restaurant? 100% is low, the normal in US is 2 to 3 over retail and many times more , possibly lower for very high end. FL has a wonderful wine list at reasonable prices, many of the wines are unavailable else where. It is expensive to store wine in proper conditions , which is only one of the expenses .
re: tstrum
You know that nicely dressed person with the tastevin employed by the restaurant to aid in your selection is not a volunteer.
"Fine diners know that the perfect meal isn't just about the entrée; it's also about the glass of wine that accompanies each course. From the first taste of the cheese flight to the last bite of gelato, the right wine can elevate any meal to a new level. Of course, if you're like many people, you don't know if a Riesling is the best match for fresh tilapia or if it's a faux pas that will send the chef into tears.
Fear not. Sommeliers know everything about wines, from the vineyards they were pressed in to the best entrées to pair them with. They take courses and obtain certification to become bona fide experts on the subjects so you never have to look at a wine list with confusion in your eyes.
Salary: $28,000 for novice sommeliers and $80,000-$160,000 for certified Master Sommeliers."
This employee is there to enhance your experience.
re: tstrum
As at many establishments the markup is not uniform at TFL. If you study the list you are sure to find several bottles marked up much less and priced at only $5 to $30 over retail. So it would be foolish to bring in something similar and pay corkage. I've been throug this in recent weeks with two different friends who found "bargains" on the list.
re: Melanie Wong
OK, don't get a mv Krug at the local store and take a loss. Instead, turn us loose in a major city and we can do better with the op's budget than you or I could do on this list. $150 - $250 will get a major world wine. This is no less than the truth.
re: Melanie Wong
Which bargains did they find? Skimming the list, of the wines available retail, I can't find any where you couldn't save money by buying retail and paying the corkage.
Though personally if I were splurging $1200 (including the necessary walking-distance hotel) on dinner for two, I'd spend the extra to see what the sommelier could do.
re: Robert Lauriston
I seem to have deleted those emails from my inbox. Thought I remembered one mentioned was Movia's bianco but the pricing doesn't work out that way looking at the list and I don't recall the others.
re: tstrum
A 100% markup is low.
A $100 bottle being twice as good as a $50 bottle is completely subjective.
As someone else mentioned, how can you bring your own wine if you don't know what you'll be eating?
The $50 corkage is obviously done to discourage diners from bringing their own wine.
TFL isn't cheap. If one is super concerned about the cost, one probably can't afford it.
re: tstrum
If the markup on wine at TFL is outrageous, what about the markup on fountain soda at places like In-N-Out? What should be done about that?
I think you will be fine no matter what, just enjoy. Do keep in mind the prices all include service, wine prices also.
This is a very timely thread, as I am facing the exact same quandry for our meal at TFL in May. I am very happy to hear the advice that giving a budget is acceptable. I will be going with option #3.
For what it's worth, my wife and I ate at Per Se last year. They actually don't offer a wine pairing. We each had a glass of wine and shared 2 half bottles, at the sommelier's recommendation. This worked very well. I wish I had written down the wine we had :(
#3. The sommelier is there to guide you with pairings and choices that suit you. What you have already discovered is that there are many wines on the menu which you are unfamiliar with. Many winemakers are so small that they only sell to restaurants, not to stores. FL is a restaurant that will have many wines that are simply unavailable elsewhere- there 's really no other way for you to gain knowledge of a wine that isn't available at retail.
And as for sommeliers- especially Masters that you will find at FL- these are truly masters at wine and service. Let them be wonderful for you, that's what they do. Put out some parameters as have been mentioned, and they will bring you something that will enhance the entire experience.
Enjoy you meal, enjoy your wine with it.
Agree with all the others for #3. When we went to TFL last August, right after having some champagne to start, we asked the sommelier to keep us at around ~$250 for the rest of the wines. She wound up getting us a mix of glasses and half-bottles. It was nice that towards the end of the meal, she mentioned that we had enough left for one glass (to split) and we could either have it with the cheese or the dessert. We wound up going with the wine for the cheese (but of course! and had coffee with dessert. As much as I would have loved to splurge on the full wine pairing, it was enough wine for us, especially since we had to drive back to our hotel outside of Yountville.
At a place like this, it's definitely worth it to take advantage of an experienced and well-trained sommelier. There's definitely no shame in setting a wine budget considering your dinner will likely set you back almost $1K. Having an agreed upon budget allowed us to relax and enjoy our meal without worrying about the wine costs. Your price range seems very reasonable at $200-300, and should be enough wine for two.
If you really aren't that into wine and have access to your own cellar you should probably select option #3. Your budget is certainly high enough to get you nice pairings with at least some of the courses (you probably won't receive a glass/course as then you would have had 9 or so glasses of wine). Be aware that there are a couple of courses where there are two choices which could require different wine pairings depending on what you select and frequently for the same course you and your husband may receive different preparations of the same base ingredient, all of which could require a different wine for the same course. Thus their is no "set" pairing for the tasting menu since the tasting menu varies. The key is to talk with the Sommelier and give him any parameters (maximum you are willing to spend on wine, wine types you particuarly enjoy, Wine types you do not enjoy, ....). As to those that suggest to bring a bottle and skip the wine list, two things, a bottle you bring can't be on the wine list, and one bottle is highly unlikely to go with more than half the meal thus you will either need a second bottle or to purchase something off the list thereby defeating your money saving proposition.
Btw, I typically do bring in wine to The French Laundry when I go but I have a large cellar and bring multiple bottles (typically which cost me $200+ each) and usually purchase at least one bottle off the list.

Hi, Oklahoman:
Just wondering how your visit to French Laundry went from a wine point of view. My wife and I are looking at about the same wine budget as you were (200-300 for both of us), and I was hoping you could report on and describe your TFL wine experience.
Thanks, and I hope you had a great time.
re: davetroy
When I went with my spouse to French Laundry, we asked our waitress to select wine pairings for us to accompany the food. We told what our wine budget was and she was able to accomodate our stipulations. BTW, $300 is reasonable for wine at French Laundry. I must say that the pairings were excellent; the interplay and the contrast...oh my. This was one of the best food/wine pairings I've ever had.

re: klum1971
The servers and wine people at FL are outstanding, ask them for advice based on what your meal selections are.
We had a glass of bubbly each to start followed by a half bottle of an exceptional Gruner Veltliner and an excellent southern Rhone for the second half. The sommelier poured a beautiful dessert wine for us. Given the richness of the food, this was more than enough and it was a stunning evening.
Last night, my wife and I took door #3 at the French Laundry, asking that the sommelier pick wines by the glass for us for the meal. While what they pour by the glass certainly isn't the top end of their wine list, neither is any of it dreck. We told our waiter that our limited budget allowed $200 for wine, he passed it on to the sommelier, and we were supplied with a quite adequate stream of wines to complement the courses served over our 3+ hour meal.
Our first impulse was to take a bottle (making sure it wasn't one they have on their wine list, which is online) trying to match it with the menu (also online the day of service) and pay what is now a $75 corkage. We decided, though, that no wine we could bring would go with 9 (or 10, or 11) courses. If you're gong to blow $250 per person on food, wine is a pretty poor place to scrimp, and it was our choice that with glasses running $30-35, $200 would buy enough wine to get us through dinner. It was. More than that, getting home might have been a problem.
Even a half bottle for only two people is more of one variety than needed for one or two courses. For a party of four, several of those might be about right.

re: gene94574
Thanks for the report! I think what people should remember is, that like every good restaurant, TFL wants to serve its customers. Don't be shy about asking them for what you want or need to have the experience you deserve to have! Nor should you be embarrassed by setting a price limit -- after all, while many of the people who dine there are well-heeled folks who don't blanch at dropping $1000 for dinner, most of them are people for whom this is a very rare and special treat.
re: Ruth Lafler
I would second what Ruth said -- I went to TFL with a girlfriend who barely drinks, and we were only doing wines by the glass (and not the super expensive ones), and get the sommelier could not have been more gracious and helpful to us (and we were probably some of the youngest people in the restaurant that night).
