A different link sent to me earlier from tracking.controlport.co.uk seems to indicate that there has been no progress on my order since the original email was received last March. But since I cannot log into Academie du Vin Library I cannot check it from there.

FWIW I was in the same position when people first started receiving their books; I was able to log on to check, and status was still the same from March. Then the next day I received notification it was being sent, and received it the day after. Hopefully you're in the queue still.

I'm still blocked by the website, so today I sent a "Contact Us" message to the site in order to try to get my access restored. Still no word on my copy of Port Vintages.

Mine arrived this pm. It's now next to the first edition and pre publication version.Any more versionso and I fear that I will have to reinforce the shelves!
I am going to have to re-shelve all of my Port books as a result of this one’s arrival...
Port Vintages now takes up a considerable amount of space on my book shelf: Edition 0, 2 x Edition 1, 1 x Edition 1 Deluxe and 1 x Edition 2. I need to start thinking about what to throw out in preparation for the arrival of Edition 3

That is very cruel. I only know of two missing wines which the author has drunk recently. Not enough to justify a third edition.

The warehouse of the Académie du Vin Library is having an IT disaster, and re-sending many emails.
Please disregard that email. Our fulfillment partner is updating our ecommerce channel integration and it appears there was a slight oversight on their behalf. The system re-sent notifications to customers on orders already processed in the past. I can reassure you that these orders will not be processed again and the glitch has been fixed immediately.

Thank you for letting us know. I simply couldn't recall having ordered anything from them since and I was racking my brains. After much anguish and prayer I had reached the conclusion that I should simply wait and see what turned up...

Ditto - I guess most/all of us! I decided not to click on the link to see what it was just in case their database had been compromised.

Something similar happened with the 1st Edition for me, so I just ignored it this time around.
