Doty's Triumphant Return - London, Friday, February 15th

[DRT]

I'm still exhausted. It's the first time in years that I have written notes on every wine in the line-up!

It was indeed a triumphant return. All hail King Doty! Hip-hip, hurray!

But I trust you lost your notes on the way home, just to live up to your reputation?

You know me too well
