Port it very much underrated in this county. It's seen as an old persons drink.

Which probably why I like it

Tawny port is perfect after Xmas lunch.

As with all these drink choose wisely. There is usually a good reason the best are the most expensive.

Do you have any recommendations Duke?

I'm more than happy to pay for decent stuff.

Love a drop of Port after lunch with cheese, FiL/MiL like it as an aperitif too.

Tried quite a few, but we import a case of White Port once a year and split it between FiL and ourselves, lovely chilled and doesn’t drown out a Brie de Melun.

I can testify that getting a cork out of a bottle, that has been in there for 13 years with nothing but a front door key is no mean feat

Coincidentally a 2013 Barolo.

Medicinal cognac.

Chateau de Montifaud VSOP cognac. Possibly the best brandy I have tasted. I could only justify a 20cl bottle but sometimes that's the best way to buy exceptional liqueur.

Just opened a Chilean Syrah from 2005 we kept when we got married.. It's breathing first.

Glass of sherry and just opened the 2014 Barolo ready for Christmas lunch later.

Pah, unlikely.

Duty done, back home now with a glass of wine and a new gin to try a bit later.
