Andy,
I know from experience that it is occassionally difficult for you to open a bottle of port, especially after you have finished your second bottle of the night
Derek
Do you have to have a reason to drink good port?

Ok, for SURE now I have to move out of Canada.ADV wrote:Mines a combo of Jay, Derek, and Alex. The younger stuff, say 1990-forward, and the cheaper stuff (under $30) get opened whenever without care. The older and more expensive stuff I try and open with other port loving friends so others can share in the fun.

You could move out of Canada and in to Québec .
Found one vintage under $30 : Sandeman Vau 1997 .
Plenty of LBV , If that tickles your fancy . . .
The Infamous Sanderman Vau!!!
Surely if its a 97, that might equate to around an 85 of the normal stuff.
Ergo...DRINKABLE!
I'd love to hear of a Tasting where one of our guys tried the two side by side, and tested if the Vau is what they are 'Subtley' suggesting.
I'd hazard a guess they'll be very different, but you never know.
