Probably be without power or light, but that just makes more of a reason to pop a bottle.
I'm thinking one of my 91's will be open on Saturday night to bide my power outage.

We had a brief shower this afternoon - so I opened a Smith Woodhouse 1999 LBV

Gulp! I hope at least sheltered from the rain!

It has been extremely windy in Chesterfield this weekend. In the spirit of "any old port in a storm" I have had Graham's 1975 and Fonseca 20 year old, bottled in 1978. Both started out better than they finished. I hope there are no more hurricanes for quite some time.

The Vesuvio was in a weird dumb phase, the next day (as i haven't had any power in the past 3 days i've been saving decanted stuff because i can't see in the dark!) it was raisiny and flabby flabby.
Perhaps a bottle to let sit and not touch for at least 10 years?
