Re: Time for drinking vintage port
Well I guess the Delaforce was delicious. We had no problems with heat-waves in Sweden. This summer was the coldest since 1862 (sic). We should have started drinking vintage port earlier

We have some vintage from 1931. Unfortunately 2 of those are B.O.B. One was bottled in Copenhagen by Oskar Davidsen and the other in Oslo by Kroepeliens Enke. Maybe someone in London or Oporto know which house the port came from because we think it is unnecessary to drink the same house twice the sa...
