Now getting round to arranging this....
We appear to have most of the shippers between us.
I have booked B&F for Thursday 08 June - I have edited the list in order of expressions of interest. Please reconfirm that you can attend.
I will update the list after this.
Cheers
Tony

Re: Thu 08 Jun - 67@50 2017
Tony - couple of suggestions on your attendee list:
- You have "Axel P + 1" in one place on your list, but no Axel P or AP; If "Yes please +1" from Axel meant AP and his +1 you need both in the list.
- You currently have 16 people listed as attending; not sure if you're intending to limit to 14 per usual practise or not, but if so then suggest you clearly make the last couple as reserves, otherwise people will assume they have a place.

Tony, please count me in !
Thank you.
Thank you.
Re: Thu 08 Jun - 67@50 2017
Tony, do you know if you would rather I bring the Cockburn 67 or Fonseca G 67 for this tasting? Let me know if one of them works and I will either bring it on Wednesday or for the 55@55 tasting so it is there at the B&F. Many thanks.

Draft of the placemats added to the first post.

Can those who have not confirmed please do so soon as there are some on the reserve list that need to book flights.
I am a couple of ports "lite" on my target (I am still working on these but if you have any please let me know). I can either
a) Double up on some cases - e.g. library release vs UK bottling
b) I have a small collection of 67 colhietas which I would love to share as a dessert course.
or
c) a+b
Please let me know your thoughts.

Re: Thu 08 Jun - 67@50 2017
I think (b) would be a splendid addition.
Re: Thu 08 Jun - 67@50 2017
My vote is a: library versus UK.

Re: Thu 08 Jun - 67@50 2017
My vote is (c). Let us know which vintages you're missing and we can see if we can track them down in anyone's cellar.
I have a confession though. When get myself organised this weekend to take some bottles to the B&F for this tasting, I found that I do not own any Butler Nephew 1967. I have one bottle left of Gonzalez Byass 1967 which I would happily contribute in addition to the Noval 1967.

I’d welcome a good-quality high-resolution picture of the label of GB67. Please?
Re: Thu 08 Jun - 67@50 2017
Much appreciated - By fortune my GB67 may actually be a BN67. I do need to check though.AHB wrote: ↑20:39 Sun 26 Mar 2017 My vote is (c). Let us know which vintages you're missing and we can see if we can track them down in anyone's cellar.

Re: Thu 08 Jun - 67@50 2017
I think option c) would work well. After a hard nights tasting work the option of a few aged tawnys might go down well.
There are still a couple of months to go and I am still working on a couple of VP's.
