Anyone got ideas or wishing to see a specific topic?
My thought was Offley? Everyone got easy access to this shipper?

Not easy access, have a couple of them stashed but drank up most of my stash of 1985 and older, all 1966s except one are long gone. We just visited them in Gaia for a really fun visit at their Lodge. We each blended 10 year old Tawny Ports there, trying to duplicate theirs, from 7 components we were given to work with.
Anyway, how about for November we do Douro wines instead of Port for a change?

Up to you though.

Yeah Offley isn't easy for me to find either.
I like the Douro wine and if so, have the perfect one to open.

Let's keep it simple, what about RED Douro wines between the vintages of 2000 and 2008?

OK folks, you've asked me to keep the Douro Wine Forum open ... now it is your turn to step up to the plate and participate here in the Virtual Tasting Room, hosted by Frederick Blais!
The theme is easy enough for everybody to play!
