For the benefit of one of us whose last day of being able to do what he wants when he wants! Theme: VP from 1985 or earlier that is neither SFE or TFP at that time. Location: the B & F at the usual time. Who’s thirsty?

Eta 6.30pm

I would be tempted to leave out the SQVPs so as to enable us to include all of the full vintage ports. But, if we do include do Roeda, my spreadsheet alleges I have 1980 Roeda (and I know I have a half of 2005 Roeda). Maybe a separate Roeda tasting idc? I would agree with George and omit the CrR an...

I have the 45, 55, 60, 63, 66, 70 & 77.

Ydw!

In celebration of Tom’s birthday I will bring a S60.And for dinner I will have the usual:
Mac n cheese
Steak (M-R) fries and green beans with the peppercorn sauce
Thanks

Yes, the lack of uptake is a little strange but I guess there is a tasting the week before and so maybe we should seek to convene on an alternative date.

Sure, why not.

Really sorry all, my wife is now away on business that week and so whilst I have been trying to find alternative childcare arrangements I have been unsuccessful and so will have to unfortunately bow out of this.

We need a team vote. Should Alex bring:

1. Taylor?
2. Graham?
3. Both?

(How is this a question?)




Also, we won’t fit in the 1931 room.

Both of course! I can bring a T70.

Yes please!

If there’s room on the screen could you put me down for this and send the details across please Alex? Thanks.

01 opened 10pm last night and double decanted at 9.45am today. Not tried.

I will bring the 01.

Food order:
Truffle Mac n cheese
Steak ((M-R) and frites with the green beans
Thanks.

Not quite, I have the Fr70!

I’m in.

‘have’

I am in desperate need of a Tasting and so yes (and I the River Quintas iteration).

23, 24 or 25 May work for me.

Apologies all that I have had to drop out of today’s tasting on account of family circumstances but hopefully I should be available again for the next one. Enjoy!

As already flagged up elsewhere, I will unfortunately be unable to attend this tasting as a family matter means that I now have childcare responsibilities that evening.

RV70 decanted just before 1pm today. Not tasted but smelled good. ETA 6.15pm

https://youtube.com/live/7IMamF9i1Rw?feature=share Let's go for the usual 5;30 for 6;00pm kick-off. Stream to start at 6;15 to properly commence at 6;30pm. 15mins is enough to battle techinical difficulties... right? Err…is not ‘the usual’ 6pm for 6.30pm? Certainly, I might struggle to get there be...
