Damn - I’m afraid I cannot reconfirm. Hopefully a reservist can make it (if not, I’ll send a bottle down).

Please may I order the following:
Starter - Welsh rarebit (I’m sure I got away with this as a starter order late last year…)
Main - rare steak, green beans and shallots & béarnaise sauce.
Many thanks.

More strawberries on the palate, with oak and a little spice. Very little in the way of tannins, and whilst a reasonabl...

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Sandeman 20 y/o = £30.39 per bottle when ordered from Amazon via a “subscribe and save”, which seems like a good deal. The subscription can be cancelled upon receipt of the first order.
