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

Heh, when I went looking for a declaration today, I found this on the Fladgate Partnership website:
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.
Math is hard.

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..” Image

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.

The problem with Krohn is in saying, "I thoroughly enjoyed that old crone."
