PS. Isn’t it ridiculous that we are now so spoiled for choice that I aimed to avoid the Quinta da Santa Eufemia, Quinta das Lamelas and São Leonardo at Portologia on the basis that I wanted to try something even more obscure! This! Seems like it is HARD to make dodgy wine inside IVDP demarcation. Th...

New home = St Petersburg (no, not THAT st Pete)

Watch this space

Woo woo

I’ll say it till I’m blue, 1986 is THE sleeper vintage in port.

2000 is second.

1970 is universally known at this point, and is still dirt cheap

2011 isn’t “cheap”, but you can get basically anything you want (except Quevedo)

Thanks for the share!

Next try the Gm and Fg

Not much to say. I am ashamed and despondent, and my fellow Americans would benefit from prayers for peace, patience, insight and compassion.

God be merciful.

Still quite tannic (as evidenced by minimal sediment) but drinking nicely and stood up well to a rather lively Madras.

I would attend, if in the country

In heaven there exists a room where every day is a 1970 horizontal. If I'm late for any appointments, please check for me there.

Thank you George for organizing the tasting and the theme. I enjoy opportunities to taste vintages in the way we did last night. (A) vintage to be drunk sooner rather than later. You crack me up alex. Just when I think I have you totally figured out, you throw me a dead wicked googly. Given that th...

Thank you - my order is: wild mushrooms on toast, five cheeses (the five of seven offered that are pasturised) and a side of chips. Many thanks again for organizing!

Thanks for the note. I've enjoyed these previously but only have a few left and have been saving them, which appears justified based on your experience. 1980 in general is a better vintage than its reputation suggests (for port at least...)

Great looking lineup! Thanks all for the organization. Looking forward to seeing you!
