It is always the best to ask an expert. Relating to harvest report, I think an enologist is a very good source. :D

I talked in february to Luisa Borges, from Soc. Roncao Pequeno (their Port wine trademark is Vieira de Sousa) about her opinion to 2013 and her meaning if there will appear Vintage Ports from this year in 2015. Luisa is working for Roncao Pequeno since 2009, she is very commited and progressive. Her work already improved their wines and Ports. A new face in the Port business, that you should remember. But enough of words, please listen to the short video interview via the following link to YouTube.

Thank you Christopher and worldofport, and thank you Luisa. Very interested in her work as I tasted and bought some Vieira da Sousa 2011 and was very impressed by it. She seems to be one to watch, as you say. So we can expect some good SQVPs and perhaps the odd stray 'major' but not a general declaration. Very interesting.

Do you transcribe these interviews as well, so that there can be a text record?

And thanks for the sax signature tune also. One of the best things about worldofport videos!

at moment there is no plan to transcribe it, however this is a good idea, and I will keep it in mind. :!:
