GM26? Royal Oporto anything? Maybe the nuns. Liceiras 1993, for those whose children were not born in ’93? I have a degree in mathematics, so I know about counting.

"Royal Oporto anything"? Don't you mean "Quinta das Carvalhas, one of the most prominent landmarks when arriving at Pinhao"?
"Liceiras 1993, for those whose children were not born in ’93?" Don't you mean the only VP in existance from that vintage?
In a world of port trivia your degree in mathematics and your own perception of your ability to count are both irrelevant. The above are port-geektastic facts. They count better than you can.

If you’re going to start doing two consecutive posts, then that isn’t playing fair. Which proves that you know you’re wrong.

I can't believe I've just spent 5 minutes of my life reading this thread. What a waste of time when I could have been drinking port instead.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.
