Re: Latest buy
The Taylor 1992 can be a truly staggering wine, and last time I looked £1800 a dozen retail - so you have done well there too. I wholeheartedly agree, George. I think the 1992 Taylor's is the best Taylor's that I've had to date followed by the 1970. Granted I haven't tasted anything older than the ...

Re: 2022 Vintage Port - Pre-Shipment tasting and review
Thank you indeed, have had some trouble finding tasting notes on the 22's outside of this forum.
Tasted the 22 Niepoort as a cask sample last year at Axel's event; hoping to experience some more of the 22s this year.

Re: New here, looking to learn
You would be very welcome at a London tasting - everyone who is a member of the Port Forum is invited to all our tastings. Not having a bottle which fits the theme is not always a problem. Often you can "adopt" a bottle from someone else, either paying cash for the bottle you adopt or swa...

I've only read positive things about your book Axel, any chance you'll be releasing an English translation in the future?

Liceiras 1993
Hey all,
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.

Re: 2011 Fortnum & Mason (Niepoort)
Allright, I brought a few bottles home from my recent trip to London, thinking it was a Niepoort regular botteling was probably foolish of me. Still since I also own some regular 2011 Niepoorts, I'll be fun to try them next to each other.

New here, looking to learn
Hi all, Port lover from the Netherlands here, started getting into ports around 5 years ago. Started buying vintage ports like a madman and currently have a cellar of about 700-800 bottles. Most are 85's, 92's (birthyear), 94s, 2000s and 2017s. Some special bottles are Fonseca 63, Taylor's 70 and Ni...

Re: 2011 Fortnum & Mason (Niepoort)
Fortnum & Mason 2011 by Niepoort , then costing £39.95, and bought as an experiment. Dark dark dark red, 95% opaque. edge of shutting down. Blackcurrants, and lots of sweet fruit. Any thoughts on this being a regular botteling by Niepoort, Morgadia da Calçada or something different alltogether?

Re: Vintage 1994
Amazing line-up, very surprising to see Skeffington getting this much love, should try to find some bottles for my own cellar!

Looking for Gilbert's 1992
Not sure if this post is allowed, but I'll give it a go: Been collecting the 1992 vintages for a while now and have bought multiple bottles of all but one of the declared 1992's. For a tasting somewhere in the future, I would like the have the complete line up, thus including Gilbert's 1992. If anyo...
