Who is to print the placemats?
Re: Quinta do Vesuvio in February 2024 - 6th Feb
If not too late could we adjust the placemats so that the 07 and 07 Capella are side by side, and the same for the two 11? (Move 05 to top right, and then the pairs below)jdaw1 wrote: ↑23:43 Tue 23 Jan 2024 Draft of the placemats, images having been added to first post. Please check people. Please check Ports. Please check Port-people matching. Please check everything else.

For logistical reasons, Harry and I are swapping the 1994 and 1995. I'm now bringing the 1994.
Justin and I will probably arrive around 17.00-17.30 to help set up.

V90 decorked at 10pm yesterday and then double decanted at 9 this morning. ETA 6pm.

Martin, thank you for organising. An evening which confirmed that 1994 Vesuvio really is all that.
Re: Quinta do Vesuvio in February 2024 - 6th Feb
Shush. I only have ~3 cases and will probably need to buy more.
