For The Love Of Port

Over the past hour and a half, I have just finished a glass of Madeira. Now it is time to take my daughter to school, after brushing my teeth. You know the morning has a crazy start when it is 8 a.m. and you've already had your fill of Madeira for the day. Off to LA to drink Port w/ Andy! Oh yeah, it was a Leacock's Velho Verdelho bottled circa 1885-1905. Good not great.

I see, starting without me huh

I've got everything ready to decant my bottles later today and last night Alex brought his over so I can decant those as well. In the wings are a 1940 Quarles Harris Colheita, 1970 Niepoort VP, 1963 Cockburn's VP, 2004 Quinta Vale D. Maria Douro, 2004 Niepoort Charme, and some Broadbent Vinho Verde as a starter white. And there are 8 more people and their wines/Ports coming......so can't wait for tonight.

Wow... Hard Core.... You *ARE* dedicated!

Actually, he has four. One in use, one on the way to the dry cleaner, one at the dry cleaner, and one on the way back.

Guilty as charged. However, I prefer to think of it as a liver that's been, well, fortified. Yes, that last comma is in the correct place.

Although few would believe this ... typically 2 to 4 days a week ... I have no wine at all. Admittedly, more often 2 than 4, I'm just sayin' ...
