Re: Second wind for 1963s? Tuesday 10 April 2018
With great regret I have to withdraw from this tasting. I have an event that evening and think it impossible I could be there before 9pm so I need to do the sensible thing and withdraw from what I am sure will be one of the greatest tastings. Very disappointed but I am sure a replacement will be fou...

Re: Tuesday 15th May 2018, for the Royal Wedding
I am afraid I have no 1960 port but as I am not at the 8s tasting a few weeks after, I was going to bring a GM68 if that is acceptable.

Re: The wine shed - a concept, and some horrible maths..
As they say on FTLOP a lot... +1
Hadn’t realised how cheap it could be... I might build 2 at the end of the garden. Now I just need 400 cases too!

Re: Place holder for June 6/7th Vintage with an '8' theme.
I am afraid I need to withdraw as I will be in Scotland that week... unless there is any interest in changing to the week after?

Re: Latest buy
Not a recent purchase... but took delivery of 12 bottles of Graham's Malvedos 2015 vintage this week following a purchase of a Port Bond from Vintage Wine & Port in 2015 to celebrate my wedding year. I have only seen 1 tasting note for it so far, in Wine Spectator Feb 2018 issue, where it scores 94 ...

Re: Second wind for 1963s? Tuesday 10 April 2018
At approx £100 I am in for the NN please as the opportunity will not present itself very often, and I can’t pass it up... but will be happy with the decision either way.

I need to make the decision on whether I could partake in the NN based on finances. What would the cost be per person?

Re: Second wind for 1963s? Tuesday 10 April 2018
Just to throw a curve ball and probably spout heresy... but I have a 1963 Cavendish I could add to the ‘63 party instead of adopting if people were interested.

Re: Second wind for 1963s? Tuesday 10 April 2018
It appears that this is a tasting I would be foolish to miss. Could I please add my name, and would need to adopt please.

Re: Thu 15 Feb 2018: Mr. Wolfgang Starz
I am very sorry for the late notice, but I am afraid that people’s plans have changed and I would not be able to get to the tasting until late if I came so it is best if I withdraw. I wish you a fine tasting and shall raise a toast to you Wolfgang. Apologies again.

Re: Vintage Port - Souza and Grahams
Can you let us know where you are based. I would potentially be interested in making an offer on some or all of the bottles depending on ease of collection.
Many thanks,

Re: Thu 15 Feb 2018: Mr. Wolfgang Starz
I very much hope I could come but need to check the week before on Zac cover. I would not be eating but would be more than happy to cover service and Ws1 contributions. If Phil is coming it would be a TV69 if not a Dow 80 for my bottle.

Re: Thu 18 Jan 2018, Mostly 1982s, at Bar Douro
I thought it was a wonderful tasting, so I wish to doff hat to Alex for making the arrangements. In truth the private table we had upstairs was a bit small for the 9 of us but we did manage as all thirsty port drinkers do when required. The service was wonderful, Max was a great host and it was love...
