This evening, as I was driving home, I discovered by accident that Taylor's have sponsored a series of infomercials on Jazz FM's Dinner Jazz (7pm-10pm). At 7:30pm I heard an interesting introduction to Terra Feita and a mention that I'd missed yesterday's presentation on Vargellas.
At 8:30 Nick Heath had two minutes talking about Terra Feita and I'm promised that tomorrow Adrian Bridge will be opening a bottle of Vargellas 2001.
I wish I'd known about this in advance. According to Jazz FM's website http://www.tlkn.co/jazzfm/taylors-port/ it's been running since October 15th and is planned to run for 6 months. There's an introduction to the 6 month relationship between Taylor's and Jazz FM on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIQiostREgI&feature=plcp.
Sadly, I haven't been able to figure out a way to only listen to the Taylor's snippets. Luckily I like Jazz, only 39 hours to listen to...

Re: Taylors featured on Dinner Jazz
I've just found out that Dinner Jazz on Jazz FM is including an audio featurette from Taylor's every evening Mon-Sat this winter. There are also some interesting short video clips from Taylor's on the Jazz FM website.

Perhaps Adrian could be persuaded to put the Port clips on one of his websites.

They also asked some people associated with Taylors to contribute - I have already asked for these from Mentzendorff . If I can get permission to publish (I don't see that it would be a problem) I will put a link in to them.
