The day has finally arrived and I am off to the airport to pick up the early birds. Madeira has been decanting for 48 hours already. In two hours, I'll be decanting some of the Colheitas for tonight. Can't wait to start sipping some good fortified juice with many new friends and old ones too.

Yeah baby! Finally ... nine weeks later, here we go! :clap: :clap: :clap:

The placemats are printed and ready to go! We have note sheets for each sitting as well, just in case people forget to bring paper. You're on your own for writing utensils, however. :lol:

Just looking at the placemats really drives home the magnitude of this event. WOW this is a lot of Port, and of exceptional quality too!
