Re: Thursday 11th April - Decanting Experiment plus some drinkers
I was one of the two evening attendees (Ben being the other) to whom Harry refers, above. Arrived to find all in good spirits, although some perhaps having a warmer alcoholic glow than others! Given the late arrival, difficult to pass too much judgment on the experiment, although I did marginally pr...

Alas, childcare responsibilities means that this is not possible for me.

Re: Thursday 11th April - Decanting Experiment plus some drinkers
Apologies but I will now be tied up with a new business proposal and so, won’t be able to attend the lunchtime part of this tasting but should still be able to make the evening if that can be accommodated?

Re: 1994s, B&F, Tue 26 Mar 2024
Interesting tasting but I’m not sure how instructive with one entrant garnering more points (40 out of 42-take a bow V and from magnum, thank-you Anthony)than I can recall at any tasting. However, for me, the big guns just weren’t firing (F was particularly disappointing), with the exception of N, w...

Ck and Tesco corks pulled at c9pm last night and decanted this morning at 6.15. No problem with the Ck cork, but yes, the Tesco cork disintegrated!

Would anyone object if I brought a Tesco 94 as an additional bottle, which I came across at the same time as locating the Ck94?

Regrettably, I will now have to excuse myself from this tasting, since my wife is away on business and therefore I am in the chair when it comes to childcare responsibilities. Enjoy!
