Europeans who like South Park , while yet a small sample in my known orbit, are like Cuban Americans. The best ::mwah::

Re: On the hunt for a 93!

93! Is a game going vintage for red burgundy and champagne. You should be so lucky!

1984 gives me California and six dudes in Australia.

(Kidding, see prior tastings & ... )

Your hunt is elsewhere

Great suggestion for a tasting theme: 1908 versus 1912. Somehow, I expect that most of those signing on would request an adoption — including me.

Re: The last 5 years: good luck or an improvement?

Not fair to blame the Sym’s. Virtually everyone had issues to varying degrees. 77 Fonseca and Taylor’s have massive issues due to corks as well, to name just one other company. I don’t have time for “blame” I’ve paid money for many many 1977 vintage port I learned my lessons Fwiw, fonseca and niepo...

(PS. If Johnny Symington was “our man in Porto” until 2013, couldn’t he have just written to HMG himself asking for a gunboat to sail up the Douro rather than bothering with Lisbon? Not that we’d do that, of course...Treaty of Windsor and all that!) How I 🛌 on this the whole time?! 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

Re: Pleasures of a bygone civilisation

flicking through Vintagewise, he is not terribly complementary of the 1910s: “The best of the three [general declarations] was undoubtedly the ’12, a charming enough wine but not a stayer.”. 1908>>1911>>>>>>1912 Ymmv 1908 varies stylistically but is comparable pleasure giving to 1826, 1927, 1945
