For The Love Of Port

Just bought two bottles - we'll have to see how this tastes

Merry Christmas to all --- i will be opening and decanting a 1997 Graham

Roy - Todays WSJ has an interesting article on Portugal and the state of the economy althuogh they mention texile and manufacturing there was no mention of the Port trade. Can you get one of you contacts from Portugal to shed some light on how things are going over there with regard to the Port indu...

Hope its not to late to give my thoughts but I too download the newsletter, print it and read it at my liesure, while travelling, in an airport or a cab or sitting in my leather chair with a fire burning and a glass of port. I do not go online everyday to see what people are saying but each month I ...

FYI - Gary's Wines still has this on the floor in their Madison, NJ store - happened to be visitng the in-laws over the holidays and picked up a case - Roy I missed you at the parade in NYC (wonder why ??)

With friends its always fun but i enjoy it mostly alone - nothing better than putting the kids to bed, sitting next to a blazing fire in the winter months and enjoying a glass of port for a little down/relaxation time.

in my younger days - now its been knock down and is a gated community

Congrats Roy -

Being in Buffalo, NY. we are often up in Canada at our summer place and shop at the LCBO's and Duty Free shops. We'll look for the reviews

I know I'm probably not suppose to have kept these after opening them this long (a little over a week) revisited what was left in the Grham 85 last night and on it's own was OK but still not as good as the others--- will revist the 2003 croft and see what I think

being a newbie we did notice the cork to be fully stained to the top with some evidence of sepage on the Graham 85 but the cork was not popping out. Could this have caused a bad bottle ?? Same was evident on the Croft 77 but it was still showed well.

While new to tasting notes and all the lingo - plum, raisin, blackberry.. tannins, etc. recently I spent mothers day weekend at my inlaws family reunion - as my brother-in-law is getting married at the end of the month and I missed his bachelor party I brought the port for this weekend - first night...

I to am in the same situation trying to figure out just what collecting strategy to follow -- ideas here are interesting - While we are talking about a drinking cellar what strategy would be best for price appreciation for the future ??? Do people have a drinking cellar and an investment cellar ???

agree - i just bought a case at $58/bottle - this is a sleeper

1985 warre's for the weekend

just added some 2003 Croft and some 2005 Taylor to the cellar

I'll try that with reagrd to the labels -r buy more port with painted labels. I too am recording relative humidity in the 80% + range with the door closed but not sure how to reduce it in a natural cellar -(ANY IDEAS) - I closed off any air flow to the space as I discovered as we get cold weather th...

thank you

if so how much is 2 much
