Vendor error? Vendor error copied by jdaw1?

And your memory is good: Eufémia, and variations (unhelpfully scrambled by phpbb’s database restore bug).

Even by my standards that was a remarkably error-strewn post. Sorry about that. I was trying to say that Casa Santa Eufémia always seems to have used the accent.

The scrambling is particularly unfortunate in the context of this issue!

Another shipper: Gilbert’s. I didn’t know about them until I bought a bottle of the 1985 from VW&P which we drunk this Christmas. I notice that VintagePort.se gives quite an extensive history back to 1914, with an alternative name of “G Port” from 1999 onwards. It’s apparently another Sogevinus brand now. Something that interested me, though, is that the bottle had an unbranded cork, just reading “Vintage 1985”, and the stencilling on the bottle matched some of the more recent Barros Vintages (e.g. the 2011). I wonder if this was actually bottled in 1985 as a “Gilbert’s” or Sogevinus have revived an old brand name for some dead stock.

Prime's Port. I've seen the 2011 in a few stores here in the U.S. (but never bought it). Produced by Caves Messias.
