Re: Ramos Pinto social media-tized :)

Sure I do - I love their Ports... especially their 20YO Tawny :) It was the first Port I had a long time ago and for some reason it stayed in my memory. That led me to find out more about them as a producer and that's when I found out that they were quite forward-thinking in their early days in term...

Guys,

This thread has gone slightly off-topic, but just checked their FB page. They adopted the new timeline layout and are offering a Port wine and food pairing guide for free, as a downloadable pdf. Looks good! At least I haven't found anything similar on other producers' pages.

Barron Forrester map for sale?

Hi, My father would like to buy an exact copy (original dimensions) of the Baron Forrester Douro map. I have searched all over the internet, but couldn't find a copy anywhere, not even on eBay. Since you all seem to form the elite group of Port enthusiasts, could you perhaps point me to the right di...

Hi, I'm a Port fanatic and quite new to this forum. I have been reading your posts and this seems to be one of the best Port resources around in terms of information and update. Anyway, just wanted to make a small contribution and share that recently Ramos Pinto has also established themselves in th...
