Actually Taylor Fladgate has made some nice posts on Instagram announcing their declarations. That seems to be the standard way now to get news on declarations out to interested parties.

Re: Emergency - Constantino 1947 - and friends..

Would be lovely to catch up soon been ages but sadly I cannot do this month.
I find this wine seriously strange and am rather surprised you see it as the heir to N31 but let’s see how you get on.

Re: Port for sale at auction

There seems to be a marked increase in the number of large single collector Cellars being brokered by some of the wine merchants as well.

There are certainly some nice opportunities in the Port market at the moment in the 60’s and 70’s. Not so much in the 40’s and earlier
