But as we've now had an author, importer and marketer of Port ... it is time to present our 1st Portmaker.
He's on board for December 14th-20th ... so stay tuned.
Here's a hint, he's never participated on FTLOP before.

I can't help Glenn, I didn't see any strange activity in my sister's email. But not sure if Roy and Claudia could manage to do it in my back...Glenn E. wrote:Oscar's sister Claudia?
OK - I won't mention 1991/92 just yetRoy Hersh wrote:Please hold off any questions, until right before David comes on line to join us.
In which case I won’t ask why Fonseca declared 1934 rather than ’35.Derek T. wrote:I won't mention 1991/92 just yet

David!
OK, please do bring forth your questions, as tomorrow will be here ... shortly!

I'll start out with a question that some of us have talked about some time ago and one that I've often wondered about.
Many of us started out our early Port years drinking Bin 27. A nice well-priced bottle that is surely to blame, in a good way, for our current love of Port. But many of us have felt that there was a stylistic change to Bin 27 somewhere around 2003 or 2004. I've yet to hear if this was the case and am quite curious.

I have an initial question as well. Several years ago, I remember discussing my friendship with your father and you had talked about doing a book about his life. Are you still planning to do a book on the life of Bruce Guimaraens?

What would you consider to be your proudest moment working in the Port industry?
And conversely, what would be the hardest thing you've had to deal with working in the Port industry?
Thanks
