Two bottles of Quevedo Crusted 2012, thanks to it being recommended on my thread asking about doing a tasting while camping.
I get excited to see when you guys get the bottles I drink regularly.Roy Hersh wrote:3 bottles of Bin 27.

That's drinking really well right now. This summer at a tasting we preferred it to the Crusted. We also had a half bottle.Mahmoud Ali wrote:Picked up a couple of half bottles of Quinta do Quevedo 2011 LBV ....

The shop is also out of stock now. I plundered the last ones. Two of these bottles are allocated for planned tastings, the first already in March this year.
That leaves with me 1 and 1 purchased previously in my possession. I will wait to crack open one of those until you guys either visit Denmark or we rendezvous in Porto

Thomas,
I have five bottles of 1992 Taylor's in my cellar. When will you be in Porto this year?

I will be in Porto and Douro from the 5th through 10th of June this year. Got to keep the streak going with 3 consecutive years of visiting Portugal. This time I will be bringing my girlfriend & son to see what all the fuss is about.

I guess you are indicating you'd sell me 1 of your 5 remaining T92? Else if you are visiting Denmark in 2019 we could perhaps make it so that you could participate in the tasting if that would be interesting enough for a seasoned vet like you.
The setup is Taylor's vs. Warre's in the following vintages (So far)
1970
1975
1977
1980
1983
1985
1991/1992
1994
Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
