The F91 is improving with time, but regretably, my willpower has faded with port and the last of it is in my glass.

Derek - I think you would like this! Next time I have one open, I promise a sample exchange!

I am inspired by this VT, so I will go down and get the remainder of the 2007 Kopke Vintage Port Cask Sample that Roy left for me when took off for Portugal and the Fortification Tour.

More anon.
