Driving round the countryside, delivering fireworks (as one does at this time of year..) it occurred to me today that I've not heard of a single duff bottle from this stash..
..I come in, make a cup of tea, and what do I find on the 'puter..

I've only drunk 12 of these, but none have been bad bottles. I also had a quick look through my notes and can say that out of 25 bottles drunk, I have never had a bad bottle of Morgan port from any of the vintages I have tried. An impressive record for a lower profile house.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
