That is a truly magnificent tasting and one which I would loved to have attended.

Unfortunately the last 3 months of the year are always rammed in my diary and I just cannot reorganise my existing commitments to make space for it.

I am sure it will sell out and be very popular, but if you organise another similar event in the future, please give more than 6 weeks notice if you possibly can!

Likewise .... I have a chaotic November but with more notice I could organize a short break as well ... As Alex says let me know if you do it again but with some notice please

I'm interested

How many people share a bottle of port?

That is a serious event, though — alas! — beyond my budget. If you need placemats, I’d be willing to oblige.

Very sadly this is at the wrong time of year for me for a special trip to Austria.

This looks an amazing tasting, with a couple of things that I have never had. have a great time. If you do another one please do let us know.
