Visiting the Douro This Month?
Hello everyone,
I am off to the Douro for three weeks of intensive photography and Quinta appointments during this year's vindima - all for A Good Nose.Com
I depart Sunday 14th Sept, so this is very short notice, but do please let me know if any of you chaps are going to be around It would be marvellous to try and hook up if you are in my vicinity, or vice versa.
I plan to be visiting thirty or forty Quintas from Ervamoira down to Régua ...so the chances are that I might see you. I seem to recall you will be in the Douro Derek so do please let me know
Best, David Eley
Here is a friend of mine from Noval:

David,
I will be in Pinhao the nights of the 20th-23rd, and then will be in Porto the nights of the 24th-28th. I'd love to meet you if we're in the same area at the same time!

Hi Derek and Glenn: glad to see I fooled you Derek, Mr Porco is in fact stuffed
Glenn: do send your cell phone number to deley at agoodnose dot com and will try to locate you... I should not be too far away from Pinhão.
From what little I know, you have not been in Port rehab for a long enough period.
Derek now tells me you consider Amy Winehouse's legs are almost as nice as Paris Hilton's...

Noval runs a similar operation to the one featured in the movie 'Cocoon' - all of their Porcos are cloned and you can never spot the difference

Any time not spend drinking port, is a waste of time.

Uncle Tom, Frederick Blais and I all fly home on the day you arrive
What time do you expect to arrive in Porto? Are you planning to visit any lodges in VNG before heading up to the Douro?

Re: Visiting the Douro This Month?
... missed you by a couple of days. Been there from Sep 5th to 8th. Had a great time: Visits in VNG Cockburns, Messias, Krohn, Visits of Vargellas and the Vindouro in Sao Joao da Pesqueira, Overnight in Vesuvio and another visit of the fabulous site of Romaneira.
Maybe next year.
Have fun there
Axel
