Luc,

Je suis ton père! :mrgreen:

Happy New Year's to you my friend. Sorry to hear about the wife loss. But sometimes that is a good thing and I hope so in your case.

Glad to hear your new gal is a Port enthusiast as well. Awesome!

Keep in touch and keep drinking such nice Ports. That 2000 GC is so crazy young, right?!? Even their 1977-1985 VPs are almost too young still, so no real surprise. :scholar:

You have been missed! [friends.gif]
Ambition driven by passion, rather than money, is as strong an elixir as is Port. http://www.fortheloveofport.com
