Oh well, looks like the Bookies win again :roll:

Seriously, this is a real shame. What a disaster to have such a magnificent wine suffering from cork taint.

Andy, was this your first experience of F66?

I accept full responsibility. In 1967, when I was 2 years old, I failed to go around all of the port bottlers in the world to ensure they were using good quality cork. Shame on me :Naughty:

...and you know only too well that you will be compensated for this in October Mr V :wink: :salute:
