Fonseca 1985 that is 20 years old, 33 years old, 40 years old and beyond. Truly, this is Monkey Magic. Now leave me be. I...

Re: Thu 14th March 2019, Broadbent Port, at the B&F
Theme: Broadbent , he supplying 2000, ’03, ’07, ’11, ’15. Perhaps from us also 1994 and 1997 (which would be complete); and, numbers permitting, a second course of older Ports from our cellars. Do you have any guidance to give as to the theme for the second course? Should we all bring an extra bott...

Re: Mon 13 August: Emergency
Monkey claims 2 points for 1970+Niepoort+Warre+Fonseca.
There are bonus points available to anyone at the annex tasting who can guess which Port Monkey is drinking.
