Hey

Maybe i can help - Ive looked at Laurentiwines web page, and the Taylors VVV 2005 has a different label, compare with my VVV 95
My VVV 95 label, is written -Vinha Velha - shown

Quinta de Vargellas

Jep.... Anja Fonseca, sweet girl. She makes me think of port, every time I watch the weather.

What a great name.....

In the danish television, there is a weather girl named A. Fonseca - Thats a cool name

Yes, Its a very nice map, I have my map in a frame.

But Its a shame that Its a Symington map... warres,Vesouvio... and so on. - Many of others Quintas is not on the map. Im planning to mark other Quintas with a spot og something.

Have you been looking on my wall ????????

But yep.... exact my words

After I have been looking in my port stuff I found a map over the Douro valley. Ive got it when i wisti the Symington in VNG last year. The size is about 70x60 cm - but is not complete. Most of the Quintas on the map is of course Symington Quintas, and others quintas is the most populare. But still ...

Ohhh... of course. Thanks - pics. would be nice
