Congratulations Derek!

Congratulations with your birthday Derek. While you enjoy the last bit of the 1965 Vargellas, we will toast to your health with a Noval LBV 2001. Cheers! :) :660033:

Happy Birthday, Derek!

I'm afraid that I don't have a 1965 to open, so the remains of my 2003 Smith Woodhouse will have to do. :mrgreen:

I find it amusing that your birthday message has been posted in meaningless drivel and not port conversations!

No matter how much he'd want to, Derek is not a bottle of port.

With the quantity he drinks we could probably have a good debate about that!

Oops, slightly late - Happy Birthday Derek
Port is basically a red drink

I hereby request that on my demise someone here arranges for my ashes to be placed in an empty 1965 Vintage Port port bottle so that the announcement of my departure can be made in the Port forum rather than MD. 88)

Thank you all for the best wishes. A great birthday was had.

Are reasonable substitutions allowed? Fonseca 1966 surely yes? Cruz 1989 probably not.

Please save us an awkward conversation with Jo by showing her your request.
