Hi Martin,

A quick question - are you bringing all of the bottles you've listed, or are you offering some for adoption?

If you want something unusual, I could bring Burmester.

Alex
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

Hi Alex

That's what I happen to have ... Happy to have people adopt or bring there own.

Burmester would be a great to bring ...

Cheers
