    24 years will make my 90th birthday. I'll put a few bottles aside for that event, but most aren't going to last that long.

    One should regard laying down some vintage port late in one's life as just like planting a tree, it is an act of faith. You most certainly will not enjoy it, your children may not and if they don't, your grand children will!

    Thanks Dad and Grand Dad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
