Organisation thread.
A splendid evening in the company of fellow enthusiasts which, unfortunately, had very few splendid Ports. The scores and tasting notes will no doubt follow.
Thanks to JDAW for organising. This was a very good way to evaluate where to invest in cellar defenders.

Hmm...dammed with faint praise I look forward to the notes!

On Tuesday 18th September 2012 some of the obvious suspects gathered in the Bung Hole, for company and entertainment, and to taste some Ports, including several samples of Sandeman Vau.
