Did anyone take any pictures of the Bicentenary Crusted, or at least make a note of the year in which it was bottled?
Pics are further back in the thread here. Bottled 2008.
Ah. Thank you.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

I have now finally sorted out the financial maths.

First however, is a huge thank you to Alex, who has very generously donated his Fonseca 1948 rather than have it included in the calculations (doff of hat several times). The average cost per person is consequently somewhat lower than it would have otherwise been. Thank you Alex, I look forward to the tasting where I bring a suitably aged gem for you to enjoy.

The chart below shows who owes/is owed what (find your name in the column and read the bottom row, in bold). Amounts in brackets mean you are owed. For those that owe, I'll PM my bank details and you can make a transfer. For those that are owed, Tom, Julian, Ian, Phil - I already have your bank details and will transfer to you. Charles, Tony and Ray - you will need to PM me your bank details and I can transfer to you.

Many thanks again everyone for a great evening.
