From what I read, I am pretty sure there are bad ways to store and drink port! But yes, I admit that I can be pretty cautious when it comes to things I really care about! I guess it's my way of mastering a new passion! Now, I have to wait until my research directors tell me it's over! With luck, I'l...

Thank you Phil! I will definitely consider everything you said :D Daniel, do I have to take selfies to prove that I did stand on my head for 15minutes every hour before drinking? I understand that there are various ways of drinking port, and that people may behave differently. However, in order to n...

If i get it right, then a bottle that hasn't been laying on its side for years, or a vintage bottle that didn't stand up for at least a day should be filtrated? Otherwise, a decanter should be fine?

Hmmm. Then, how do you identify when to use filtration and when not to? I'm confused!

I will also pray that my cork and corkscrew will fit together fine then!

Thank you for your fast reply SIR!!

Great! 14° should be fine then! And if i see it drop below 14 (which is very rare), i'll let it breath an hour or two more i guess! Merci!! If anyone else has answers to my previous questions, feel free to enlighten me! ;) The questions are below: 1) First, is there any kind of coffee filter that mu...

Also, reading a bit here made me wonder if I should let my port breath inside my wine cellar or at room temperature. Or perhaps in the basement which is a bit cooler than at the rez-de-chaussée? I like the idea of having the port warm up in my guest's hands and my cellar is at 14°. What you guys thi...

Merci beaucoup everyone! I will definitely have it decant for about 4-6 hours. Your explanations about AHB's decanting times are quite insightful! Now that I viewed Sushinorth's video on YouTube on his homemade port garrotte, it made me wonder a few things. First, is there any coffee filter that mus...

Alright! Thank you SIR! I must say that i am bit confused as to the time necessary on decanting it, especially from reading all the different times used by AHB! He went from 2 to 10 hours from what i have read, always with a Graham's 70, and couldnt figure out why his decanting times varied so much!...

Bonsoir, (Good evening), In the incoming weeks, i should be graduating after studying psychology for over 10 years. Obviously, i am going to celebrate it with a good bottle of port. I know it is nothing very fancy for most of you (when i see all the great vintages you are drinking from time to time!...
