Perhaps my memory fails me, but Alex and Glenn, you guys both mentioned a Guimaraens declared in 79'.
I found it surprising as I've been looking for 79' ports for a while and I can't find any record of Fonseca declaring a 79'.
Did I mishear?

Re: Fonseca Guimaraens 79
No record on my matrix - the only '79's I know of are: Dow Bomfim, Graham Malvedos, Warre Cavadinha, Royal Oporto, Kopke, Barros and Andresen

Re: Fonseca Guimaraens 79
The Fonseca Guimaraens I was talking about is a 1964, not a 1979. If you're very nice to Derek you might be able to talk him into posting a picture of it since it's currently resting peacefully in his cellar. 
I also mentioned that I'd found a 1939 VP of some sort but couldn't remember exactly what it was (and being a fair bit beyond the pale I may have claimed it was a Fonseca Guimaraens too)... it's a Real Compania Velha Royal Oporto VP.
