Referendum port

I suppose I am not the only one who might be staying up a bit later than usual to see the outcome of the referendum. I shall be selecting myself a bottle of something to keep me company and I rather fancy trying a bottle of Taylor 66. I bought a few recently and have been itching to try one since it seems to be getting good reviews lately. But it may depend on what I can get my hand to in the stash.
Anyone else opening anything?
No politics, just port.

I couldn't get to the Taylor and having toyed with a Graham 85 eventually plumped for the Fonseca 83 as being more appropriate for the weather, more like a lunchtime port. Note to follow.

Graham Crusted 98. Better than some I've opened. Slightly stewed nose but sweet fruit and lovely milk chocolate cherry finish. Will get me through tonight (probably).

I feel for all of you living with this fiasco and if I was there I'd open some port for you. Sure it will be needed.

Derek, Julian and I were in Oporto for the Sao Joao fireworks and festival on referendum day. We were drinking Taylor 1985, Morgan 1991 and Morgan 1977.
