Going back on topic, I've still got a pile of the unfiltered Croft 2004 LBV in halves to use as cellar defenders, although I need to get some more of them out of off-site storage. I've also got a handful of the 2002 and 2005 Croft LBV in full bottles.

When I fancy something a little more heavyweight - but still a cellar defender - I also have some Fonseca Crusted, Fonseca Unfiltered LBV, a couple of bottles of Noval 2005 LBV and 2 bottles left of Taylor's 2003 LBV. Or as a special cellar defender treat, I can tuck into some Skeffington 2009 in half bottles.

And, just in case I run low on cellar defenders, I've just bought some Smith Woodhouse and Warre Traditional LBVs from the '80s and '90s!

I think I might be OK for while...

I think we need to put together an offensive team to test some of these defences. I'll volunteer for such a team.
