Go to the Graham’s lodge shop. They sell black plasticised bags, with a prominent white Graham’s logo, that have internal fabric so that they can hold six bottles upright. When empty they fold flat into almost nothing. Cost: €2 or €3, I forget. A great means of carrying wine to tastings. Really worthwhile value. Very useful.

Please excuse my senior moment of confusing the Factory House in Porto with the Vintage House hotel in Pinhau.

I’d blame the Port :-)

Sounds good. Would you like me to acquire more than one for some sort of further distribution?

I want another, but am likely to be in Oporto before meeting you.
