Thanks Neil. One to try and watch.

I hadn’t noticed before how declarations by smaller producers dribble out throughout the year. It seems to me that they are missing a bit of a trick here, publicity wise, since the wine press only really covers Port in April and at a Christmas. If it’s not possible to get the declarations out early...

We are really attempting Virtual #11... the Moonshot has started !!

Selfridges have both the Colheitas for sale. I have had the 2006 which was for want of a better expression, “middling”. Very pleasant but no wow factor. I haven’t had the ‘95 yet. I think the Otima range was good at making tawny port more mainstream and accessible back in the Mid/late 90s, when I th...

Huge Congratulations to Tony & Claire and all the team at Vintage Wine & Port for winning the Decanter Sweet & Fortified Wine Specialist Retailer of the year for 2020. Two awards in two years for VWP and very well deserved! Such a range of ports but some great online tastings this year too, which I ...

Posts like this never fail to make me feel intellectually challenged!

Yes please

Would be up for joining by zoom if that is possible but not a problem if not. Enjoy the emergency regardless!

It looks like an Offley 1972 and a slightly off piste choice of a Cavendish 1963 will be tasted here at the Heritage tomorrow evening. Will look forward to having AHB as the zoom co-pilot.

Have done a number of Sherry tastings over the years, and this was one of the best. If you haven’t already partaken then VWP still have the tasting packs available. Exceptionally good value. Completely agree. Anyone who is interested in the different styles of wine or gaining more knowledge about s...

Simon - can you fit another socially distanced person in the room with you when we get back from dinner (assuming I have permission to join you)? I'll bring a bottle to share...

Of course... you can even join my bubble if you wish. Tony will be testing the same set up shortly.

Yes please if someone can kindly make it happen.

Yes please...

I will be in Dorsetshire

Whereabouts Ian? If you are near Weymouth you should pop by for a cup of tea/glass of port.

Yes please

Sainsbury’s in Weymouth is lagging behind with TTD 1998 vintage.

Simon

Just spotted that your post earned you the somewhat ephemeral rank of "Cruz Tawny". Well done!

Neil

And my ‘devil’ post too! Someone obviously thought “Cruz Tawny” was evil when establishing the list.

My sample labelled Noval National 1963 has arrived safely too thank you. The fun of not being blind is more than negates by the chance of such fine Port. Doffs hat in thanks.
