Porto 26-29th Jan

Post by rich_n »

I have just booked a short city break in Porto for a few days at the end of January and was wondering if anyone else is likely to be in the city around that time - if you are please let me know!

Unfortunately, not me. But January is a nice time to visit, it's much quieter - but beware of short working days and venues closing early.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: Quinta das Carvalhas 80YO Tawny

I might be, I'll wrangle up a few drunks and we can have lunch, if you're available.

Just let me know when you might be able to get into the city and we can work out a plan.
