Had no really idea what to expect here but I was pleasantly surprised and it certainly did fight it’s corner at the event

mcoulson

I learnt a lot from this bottle which is great from my stand point – however I did move on very quickly.

mcoulson

The nose on this I did not like but I appear to be in a minority on that – having said that the actually taste and flavours were extremely enjoyable

mcoulson

This is one of my go to solutions for port and all the bottles of this I have opened have been gorgeous as was this one

mcoulson

This was a lovely port, I can’t help feeling that the way it has been stored for the last 40 years has something to do with how nice it was. It’s basically sat snoozing in a low temperature garage under a blanket for all those years. My only problem with this port is that I only have two remaining b...

mcoulson

Ok ... I admit it ... I was wrong ... I know what the Harry Party Corner will be like ...

Fonseca 34
Fonseca 66
Dow 63

My vote is don’t. Over the whole event, we will have more than enough.
Ditto.

I agree .... Plenty already ...

mcoulson

I'd help you play that game subject to the date .....

I have Vesuvio and oddly Osborne

mcoulson

Confirming lunch and dinner .....

mcoulson

Hi Sean, sorry that's all gone now

however next time I organise this it will be in this thread ....

mcoulson

I need my beauty sleep so I'm ready for the following day so I have to decline ... Now after BFT is a different matter

mcoulson

Yes please... Very up for this ....

mcoulson

Well done Michael for organising a splendid evening - just the right amount of port .... not too much and not to little - Thank you

mcoulson

Have just tested this and to my taste it's very yummy ... I'll leave George to come up with a more comprehensive description

I suspect we will have the normal glasses issue with this evening ...

mcoulson

Jolly good I'll aim for 5 so I can assist -:)

mcoulson

I've asked Nigel and he's in France so can't make it ....

We shall just have survive without him !

mcoulson

Who's the missing attendee ? My mate Nigel might be available... Especially as we appear to have an over supply of port !

Sitting there your part of the play ...

Martin and Mike have both indicated they have GC available. Waiting to see who responds first. First post will then be updated accordingly. Martin - if you have it not in storage, I'd prefer to pass on getting a case out of storage just to get one bottle from it. Sorry I only have Fonseca and Croft...
