17 January 2011





Spo-De-O-De - way back in 1997 I took some photographs for a book about Port. At the end of the shoot I was able to choose a bottle of Port to take home with me. I chose this bottle as it was a 1962 vintage and that was the year that both Lin and myself were born. Last night two friends, Colin and Debbie came over for dinner and we opened the bottle. Neither Lin or myself are experts, but Colin (landlord of Ramsgate's micro pub The Conqueror) and Debbie have a wealth of knowledge on alcoholic beverages and they both gave it the thumbs up! If you're wondering what the Port was it was a 1962 vintage Colheita from Quinta Do Castelinho.
