Garrafeira.jpg Wow, what a tasting - I always liked the Niepoort Garrafeiras, being the best of both worlds from Vintage and Colheita. Overall amazing Ports. Without being fat or direct on the palate, they possess a fantastic balance and an incredible length. Wine of the night was the 1938... follo...

You are also able to taste Ports that you can taste nowhere else...

Good idea. Depending on the date.

I have 63, 70 and 82.

Not too late - book, come and taste more than 50 (!) Vintage Ports from the fantastic year 2016 plus at least the same amount of other special cat Ports (amongst them Krohn Colheita 82, Fonseca 40y old Tanwy, Graham VP 83, NIepoort Crusted, Dalva White Colheita 2007...) Dirk Niepoort, Domingos Alves...

Quinta da Oliveirinha, produced by Alves de Sousa, was also produced for the first time as well as Talentvs, produced by Seara d'Ordens.

Only Talentvs or do they produce the regular VP as well?

The following other houses have bottled a Vintage Port in 2016: Andresen Quinta da Boeira Maynard Maynard BIO Feuerheerd Cruz Dalva Presidential Ventozelo Delaforce Real Companhia Velha Dona Matilde Santa Eufemia, Quinta Lamelas, Quinta Martha (for the first time ever) Dona Otilia Pego, Quinta do Pe...

Dont do this tasting without Vallegre Vintage Port 2011. Fantastic and the biggest surprise of 2011.

In my next life I need to be a DUTCH journalist...

Looks fantastic.

Dirk said, that the old VV contains 50% 1863 Colheita...

Yes, please

For those who do not have enough presents (for themself) for christmas:

And here are Dominics words alongside to the tasting, when I asked him what needed to be altered when the Symingtons took over the brand: Dear Axel As you are aware. We purchased the assets of Cockburn’s from Beam Global Spirits & Wines in 2006 but not the brand and at the same time came to an agree...

I have done a couple of tastings pairing Chocolate and Port and always was keen on getting chocolate you can buy pretty much everywhere. Here are some suggestions: White.png 10.jpg 20.png LBB.png Vintage.jpg You can certainly switch the producers on your availability and likes, but the pairings work...

seen it, together with the Colheita 92 and the LBV 92

As far as I remember from ProWein, this is a special reserve Tawny Port, average of less than 10y old.

The important thing here is the bottle, you would not purchase this for the Port.

Best

Dear Axel ,
Very nice to hear from you.
I have the best memories from that great tasting, without doubt one of the most enjoyable and interesting events in all my profissional life !
Also Cockburn's 1908 was, probably, the best Vintage I taste ever !
Please send my best regards to all,
Abraço,
Miguel

Sorry, out in the fields for too long. Hope not to have caused trouble.

Here is my food order:

Cornish crab salad with ciabatta toasts

Sirloin steak, blue, with skinny fries,
+ Green beans with shallots;

Something cheesy at the end?

Thanks

Horray, will spread the word on the continent.

Last seats of the Noval Masterclass...

Noval's new winemaker Carlos Agrellos will hold a special masterclass about the difference of Noval and Nacional.

I have an option on two very old bottles that would take the cost per person from £240 to £300 including Port and tip for our friends at B&F. Food would be on top at cost.

Yes, please...

Sorry for the late response. Happy to join. Happy to take the cost.
