This is a Port tasting. We are not defiant revolutionaries; we are traditionalist scientists testing hypotheses.
The Port Philosophical Society?

Of Producers that I don’t think have been offered yet, I can add RP and Calem (mag).

I am pretty sure I have one bottle left of the Ferreira (dumpy bottle), otherwise I think everything else would be matching things already out there. I’ll check and confirm.

And I just noticed that CK77 hasn't been offered yet - I have one of the late release bottles I can offer. Previous examples of this have not woo'd the crowds, so if something needs to give to keep the botlle numbers sensible, this could be a candidate.

Sorry I have been super busy and just realized that this is 4 weeks away. What do we have missing? Can someone post what is being brought so far please? (I'm not great with all the abbreviations)

I have the following in Mags for 77
Dow, Graham, Warre, Taylor, Smith Woodhouse, Gould Campbell, Quarles Harris, Calem
-----
I don't see an N in any of what has been listed so far and I definitely have Niepoort in bottle - lots of others too but will require searching through various stores.

It’s not my tasting so its co-ordinator will comment - but from my perspective if you just turned up with the Niepoort I for one would be delighted- it’s the one I haven’t ever got my paws on.

I think that would be a great idea

Okay I'll bring the Niepoort then!
I'll see what everyone else brings and will fill in any gaps if able.

Cliff’s post reminded me that I also have RV (in mag).

Hi all - just to confirm, I can provide Croft 1977 for this! Hope that works.

Since I am bringing the Niepoort VP, frankly it would be downright rude not to have the '77 Colheita too. So I'll bring that as well.
Do we have a general kick off time and what's the earliest time for room arrival?

When it’s about ready, pls make a list of shippers in attendance, so that placemats can be made.

I'll be there to help, I'll bring along a mag of 1977 Napa for pre-Port slurping as the clarets were very poor in that vintage.

I'm no longer 100% for this tasting, so I will drop to reserves and JDAW gets my spot.
