For 2022 Guimaraens and Vargellas. Didn’t see a Roeda though.

Re: TFP Declare 2022 VP
Heh, when I went looking for a declaration today, I found this on the Fladgate Partnership website:
Math is hard.Over time, The Fladgate Partnership has brought together four of the main Port houses. Taylor’s, founded in 1692, was joined by Fonseca and Croft.

Hahaha. Maybe they just didn’t want to admit they own Romariz, but still wanted to say they have four? then again, it’s not exactly a “…main Port house..”Glenn E. wrote:Heh, when I went looking for a declaration today, I found this on the Fladgate Partnership website:

Re: TFP Declare 2022 VP
or Krohn... but that's why I linked the page because it's not just a typo. That page literally only lists Taylor, Fonseca, and Croft as their brands.Andy Velebil wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 12:25 pmHahaha.

Re: TFP Declare 2022 VP
I had a very brief chat with Adrian about Krohn. I'll fill you in this weekend.
Re: TFP Declare 2022 VP
The problem with Krohn is in saying, "I thoroughly enjoyed that old crone."

I already received my 2022 VPs from TFP at home. Photos will be on FB/IG this week.

Re: TFP Declare 2022 VP
Did you get a sample of the Sentinels? I’m very interested in this one, it’s a throwback to the 1930s and 1940s and the Taylor Pinhão they used to blend for customers in off-years.
Re: TFP Declare 2022 VP
Not yet, but Adrian mentioned he'd send me one. It will be included in the 2022 VP Report in the 2 newsletters at the end of the year.
