I will post some TNs when I get near a PC. The lineup at Noval was superb with a few stunning wines and only 1 or 2 that failed to make the grade.
We had intended doing a tour of the lodges but ended up spending 4 hours at Noval instead!
After Noval we went to Vinologia and had some really great ports from small and unusual producers. You will have to wait for Andy to post notes on these as I had given in by then.
On a train to the Douro now

I'll get some notes up soon. I just got home early this am and am taking a breeak from unpacking and laundry.
It was great to see Derek again and we all of us had a blast. Noval was quote fun, and Vinalogia was just as fun. The night went on well into the evening, even though the US crew hadn't slept for a day plus, and had just gotten off a very long 12+ hours of flying across the atlantic. Derek and I ruled the roost and stayed up drinking well past when everyone else went to bed. I was a little tired on Monday, well at least until I started drinking again at 10 am
