I'm in.

How about "something not from big conglomerates"? (We can discuss who these are, but I'd include Sogrape, Symington, Sogevinus, and Fladgate). Or is it too general?

Good idea. Let's say "Smaller Producers".

I'm in! Hopefully. Always a bit unpredictable since it's the middle of the work day, but other than this last one it usually works out.

Sign me up. Yes please.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
