Hello, I'm new to the forum
Hi my name's Ben and I've been working with Port, Madeira and Portuguese wines for about 15 years now in different areas of the Trade. I heard about this forum from a couple of reprobates at the New Douro Tasting held in London recently and having joined it recognise a few forumist names. Looking forward to joining in and making a contribution.
Cheers for now.

Port is basically a red drink

A fine name! Welcome. Are you London based? We have fairly frequent London tastings. Generally "bring a bottle to share" type themes!
