Yes please

Andy, we never had the pleasure to meet but I am saddened but also touched by your message to the forum. I can only say that I wish you a peaceful good bye surrounded by those you love, and of course, some excellent Port. Next glass shall have a toast to you.

A pleasure to have you commit and join. My parents live in Lancashire (although I'm actually a proud Yorkshire man.. Living in the south) so often find myself over there. I'll drop you a message and perhaps a small tasting could be in order up there?

In Romania...
I've been told that the Romanian language doesn't even use a'postrophes.

Yes please.

We are very fortunate with the Boot and Flogger.

Hope it's good vintage for me my children.

We've talked now. I think the issue may have been that I dreamt sending a message.

Haven't received anything yet, but I see some of my messages being stuck in my outbox. I'll check again later.

Messaged again *fingers crossed*

One of the slippier slopes into Port I have seen

If you find yourself in London, you should try get yourself over to a Port tasting. There's plenty going on!

Got a bottle (0,75) of the infamous 93 vintage that I'd rather sell than drink.

Will post a picture later,

Located in the Netherlands, can ship to EU.

Just messaged you.

Is it worth it? Different question. How fragile is this? It shouldn't be terribly fragile. The nice thing is it does have redundancy built in with that there should be two records of whats in the bottle - the bottle itself and Glenn's record. Should the labelling be messed up, at the end of the eve...

A thought if you really want to make sure that you dont know your bottle and that everyone can help with pouring. Glenn would have to create a random mapping of a person attending and bottle to a numbered bottle setting, a greek letter, and a might I suggest a windings character (?). Additionally, t...

Apologies Tom but I thought I had already said that I can't make it and have realised that I didn't. Actually saying it now.

Alex Bridgeman wrote: ↑23:32 Sun 14 Apr 2024 Are we taking about Fence in Lancashire? That’s a long way to travel for a glass of Port!

Yes - not far from my current child support base however!

Enjoyed at £18/glass at The White Swan, Fence 11/04/24.

Dark red. Fairly mild red fruity nose although a strong spirity hit. Blackcurrants on the palate with a hot mouth feel. Not a terribly finessed Port but certainly more than drinkable.

Didn't realise this was a thing - many thanks for the kind message Alex. Very pleased to annouce the birth of my twins, Otilia and Sasha. Both babies are doing very well and mum has recovered brilliantly. If you're wondering why I have been cancelling all my tasting appearances, you now know.

This is now unfortunately a can't attend.

Alex Bridgeman wrote: ↑22:09 Sat 30 Mar 2024 Waitrose is having their “buy 6 bottles and get 25% off” sale.

So I’ve just bought my summer supply of Kopke 10YO White and Kopke 2010 White Colheita.

I got Pocas 2016 for less than £25 a bottle and Niepoort 2019 LBV for £15 (also an Amex offer with waitrose which can be combined)

Might be able to make this. Tentatively yes please! Move me off if others are more sure.

Bumping this as I should be going to Lisbon end of April.

Back to practical organising - please could the following people let me know what (if any) 1994 VPs they could offer for the tasting:

• JDAW
• MPM
• ZDR

I'm afraid I will have to pull out of this tasting.

Very unlikely to join. Apologies!

I really don't think I'm going to make this so I'll drop out. Hopefully deals with the overbooking situation

Sounds fun - yes please!
