I know some guys from the best port selling store and we've done a couple tastings, but they think a bottle per person port night is out of control... I have a couple of casual port friends, but nothing like us

I like your suggestions, thanks.

Figured I ask... Would like to do a port night, but can't find serious port drinkers around here

Is there a set venue yet? I may be able to attend. I have plenty of Grahams pre 1990...

What brands of port were Vesuvio grapes used in before the Vesuvio brand was launched? The Symingtons bought the estate just before the '89 Vesuvio release. Prior to that the estate was part of the Ferreira stable and I think I recall Johnny saying that the grapes were used variously in some Ferrei...

I am big fan 1982 Kopke, but prices on that vintage are higher than on some vintages right around that year...

My cousin had a case of '27 Taylor that leaked out when he managed Sparks in NYC like 30 years ago...

If in good condition, you should be able to get £230-245 from a private party.

I have '85 Hoopers, Croft, and Sandeman

Rolling Stones go with it all. Just match the vintage to the closet Stones album.

I thought most clubs like aree like 3K a year, but also need a sponsor.

I plan to put in an order for at least 6 once it comes around.

If my travel plans allow, I would like to attend. I won't know until September if I will be in the area, but it looks to be on the horizon.

I could be a maybe on this event. That would be rather good. I don't think I've seen you since that amazing Croft vertical we did in Boston in 2007. Well, my project has been moved to Sept, so I will be unable to attend :crying: I am anxious to have a portathon as I don't know anyone who fancies po...

Indeed. That was a fun event.

Try again at 25, or better yet wait until 30.

Agreed.

I'd just take the crew and do it on another channel...

I am all for the formal dress; why not? Hard enough to find a place to wear such attire as it is. Then I get to drink port; a lot of port!

I bought a 6 pack of the Six Grapes Special. It's a great reserve wine, much better than the regular Six Grapes although I have not had them side-by-side. I am not a fan of the regular Six Grapes.

Where can you buy '69 Colheita in the US?
