Unsure if this has been highlighted before, but found this...

Not particularly difficult, but mildly amusing.

AHB, NAC, JDAW, GEAG, SCD, PW will all have Tawny, 1988VP, 1994VP, 2015VP(Waitrose).

First bottle from a previously unopened OWC. Bottles in excellent condition with original tissue wrappers. Decanted but didn't immediately drink, so spent 24hrs under VacuVin prior to tasting. 40% opaque, some browning to core and pale pink rim. Developed nose of leather, wood, spice and possibly or...

Links for videos of Barbadillo and Taylor/Fonseca events added to top post.

Clearly not specifically about Port, but no doubt it will make an occasional appearance... Received this from 67 Pall Mall last week and thought it might be of general interest: Launching 67pallmall.tv Firstly, I think it’s time for some good news… When we launched our virtual tastings back in March...

If you're a Wine Society member then you've probably already seen these, but if not their Christmas Fine Wine List has halves of Bomfim 2006 (£14.50), Malvedos 2010 & 2012 (£16.50), and bottles of Cavadinha 2001, 2005 & 2012 (all £29).

Offer received yesterday from Fine & Rare (frw.co.uk) for 1994 Taylor and Fonseca. Apparently recently shipped from Oporto. Both are £570 per 6 in bond.

How was the tasting?

Corney & Barrow sent me their full fine wine list today - extract below is everything from Portugal:

You're unlikely to get it by the 24th, but if you want some mature(?) de la Rosa there's a full 12bt case of the 94 available on WineOwners.com for £600 (duty & VAT paid, but excluding fees & delivery).

Aldi - Fletchers Port, both 40 year tawny and LBV 2016 are back for online sales.

Thanks Harry - good spot. Missed out the other day.

The time doesn't work for me. I'll going to wait until the video is available and then watch it (possibly with some of the wines).

Would be interesting to hear your feedback.

I would be up for a post tasting Zoom if someone is able to arrange and kind enough to oblige.

Good spot. Ordered. Yes to after party.

Julian - whilst looking something up in The Book last night (whilst sampling a particularly pleasant GB70) noticed that there doesn't seem to be a chapter/section on Churchill. Have I missed it or is this an omission? If an omission will it be included in a later Addendum?

The only change is the mentioned bottling of G63. So a small sip of something would suffice.

Think I've got a number of bottlings that aren't included. Will email you details and hi-res photos.

Just been sent an offer by BIWine for 4.5l Jeroboams of Graham's 10/20/30/40 Tawny.

Please.

Previously mentioned that recently acquired some of the 88 and 94. Could potentially send out a few samples of each. Would be happy to do this at cost.

And while we're on the topic, you can currently buy a glass of the AJ Symington 1882 tawny Port at the Graham's lodge — a 50ml pour is EUR 600.

Bargain.

Slightly cheaper than this and the Scion, the online wine shop of The Yeatman has 1966 Delaforce for €114 per 75cl bottle.

Have just placed an order.

After party?

This is JDAW's previously published work. The books about pigs and other animals are by a different JW.

Aah - did wonder about the daily commute from South London to Nottingham University...
