Did not think to ascertain and believe the cork is gone---good excuse to open another which I will do in next month.

Anything we say would be speculative---you have the means to procure empirical evidence.

I wonder what Dirk would say....assume this was done before his departure.

I Know 4-5 in NJ including me. Have been talking to all about a NJ tasting----no plans but thought something in January.

2011 Quinta do Crasto LBV has both ends stamped!

6 x Fonseca Quinta do Panascal 1986 (at auction last Sunday). I didn't know this was made (I know of the 1986 Guimaraens). Also the label is somewhat of a mystery to me (I'll try to post a couple of pictures). Does anyone know these kind of labels from Fonseca? And since I don't have a clou when th...

Maybe end of month??

In May of 2015 my Port Club had a 1995 horizontal. They are drinking well right now, many in the good category with the exception of Churchill Q da Agua Alta (poor) and Dow Q do Bomfim (OK). The WOTN was Graham's Malvedos. Further, while drinking well now I did note a few had more upside potential. ...

Sorry G-Man----I will not be able to attend.

1966 for me...then 1955.

I totally agree with the notion that there are many LBVs out there that can benefit from bottle aging. My personal favorites, in no particular order: Smith-Woodhouse Niepoort Crasto (partially because of its very attractive price) Noval (unfiltered) Warre (especially many over 20 y/o) Sent from my ...

I am always interested---problem always is other aspects of life.

About where do you live G?

I have no Cockburn's, but I can try to solve that problem!

Its killing me to miss this--I have a bunch of various Grahams including some ex-cellar 1970 Grahams. Have fun---hope you find your venue.

Are we necessarily one person/bottle? I've found it tends to be a good deal more Port than i can stomach. How do you guys typically do it? In London? Well, 1¼ to 2 bottles per person. Which probably doesn’t help you. JDaw--I suppose we are not professionals over here!!!. :wink: Miguel: Take your ti...

I will be unable to attend...off on holiday.

Have Fun

I am unable to attend....my apologies.

My attendance is now in doubt but lets keep planning...

April 1 would be a good date----Friday but if the consensus says during the week so be it.

Price range...$100-$140 (at least that's what I think what we did at The Palm a few years back).

Theme: Agree. Make it easy. How about anything pre 1990?

I am!

I just had a 77 SW last month....Thought is showed quite handsomely. I was wondering what transpired....perhaps late January, early February.

SO...is this happening today??

What's the plan here???

BYW, Jan 23rd out for me.

12/17 does not work for me---but you already knew that. :cry: post another date or post another thread for another offline If you are going to do 12/17 and another tasting I would assume you'd rather go into late January/February for the 2nd....so January 23, 30 or 6th (Super Bowl is the 7th if tha...

12/17 does not work for me---but you already knew that.

Nice---I've got two local Port Friends who are interested in joining us.

There are some 85's at Wine Bid if anyone is so inclined...the usual suspects.
