What port should I open on Saturday (assuming that the Mrs allows such)? A recently acquired port (see
Port for sale by retailer ), or one owned for longer (see
previous thread )?

I voted for the 77 on the basis that you were denied you first choice in the last vote and should not allow others, including the wife, to repeat that disappointment.

Any time not spend drinking port, is a waste of time.

I voted for the Boa Vista, I had the 80s Grahams quiete often, I am not too much convinced by the Burmester VPs in total (though curious how the 77 would be) and I just had the 82 Boa Vista, which was surprisingly complex and very pleasant.

Your votes have been repurposed to be for Sunday’s port. But with the Burmester leading 4:2:3:0, it’s looking like B77.
