This video is so well edited and produced, I assumed it was made this year!
True!
It has a Derrick comedy feel from back in the day
Great camera for back in the day
Same
Thanks. I tried to make it funny!

Yes
Topher and I want to thank everyone for watching!! Stay tuned for more episodes!
im so glad that you are going to do some more!
Do you have anymore of them episodes?
Hey!!! I'm portuguese and LOVED the video. When will the "Sangria" (another portuguese??) video comming out? Keep it up!! Cheers!
THANK YOU. Thank you for asking him.
+Jay Lavely How much Port do you recommend and for how long to get as funny as Topher?
Oh my actual god, I simply searched how to keep port, looking to find a boring video that would teach me, and spent 6 minutes dying of laughter. This guy is a legend. 😂😂😂 and I learnt about port. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
"If you're still alive....If they remember you at all."
Dude, I love this video! I am just now discovering wines and this series will help a ton. Please start a facebook page so we can follow your updates easier (and send questions, etc). Looking forward to the next series.
P.S. Don't shave!
This guy’s a riot! Great tutorial.
The bourbon I just purchased was matured in a Port Wine barrel. Got curious and here I am! Thanks for the info.
Excellent video, I just finished a port wine, that is bottled a port wine, that I started in 2017. Your video was perfectly timed. I started with a California Burgundy and aged it three years in glass carbouys, with French oak chips, then racked it off and blended with French brandy, organic cherry, organic chocolate, and organic vanilla flavoring. And aged it for another 3 1/2 years. I’ve been making wine for over 33 years, and this is my first port. Before bottling, I filtered it down to 2 µm, and will be giving it out, and, of course, keeping some to see how it is every 5 to 10 years. I am a certified a septic processing technician, so cleanliness has been adhered to for the entire life of the wine to date. you were video give me some new information and recapped humorously other points I was already aware of, great job!
Thinking I need to run out and get some Port and cheese!
I'm enjoying my first Vintage Port Wine from 1999!! This is truly delicious, and I am so glad to have found it! Awesome video!!
I just came across your channel and love your presentation style! I have just become enamored with Port over the last few years after a group of friends and me spent and evening together with a fine bottle of Porto. I was immediately hooked. I've tried lots of different makes and so far I find Sandeman Ruby Porto my favourite.
This video series is amazing, so funny, informative and all round brilliant!
I usually avoid "the guy talking away his knowledge", but I gave it a try here, and it was so much fun!! Well done, man!
I enjoy learning. But I really enjoy learning with humor. Thank you!
These are amazing, there need to be more of these
Great informative video for wine rookies. Look forward to more episodes.
Thank You 👍🏽I'll try it. I'm 60... time to get on the Port Wagon....
Gamal Mitchell never is late! 💪🏼
This was hilarious and SO informative, you are amazing, thank you🙏🏼
very entertaining! you made me care about a subject i previously did not, make more!
Fantastic coverage! I love an odd glass of Ruby Port but will now venture into other varieties due to looking at this video. You're funny too man
Possibly the most well crafted video I have ever seen
Awesome! The best wine video I have seen so far! Please do more!!!
Came for the tips, love the humor! Liked and subscribed!
Excellent! Please do more
Thank you for this bit of education, I also like your sense of humor.
This is gold!!!! It helps a lot!!!
Super funny and educational. I'm French and people usually assume that I know a lot about wine so that helps. Came from reddit and now subscribed. Keep it up, you're great!
I laughed and learned a lot. Thanks!
Love your sense of humour!
Great editing!!
The addition of aguardente (burning water, aka rudimentary distilled alcohol) made it strong enough to keep over long voyages (not just to Britain, that's quite short, it actually was meant to keep as it travelled to Brazil and the colonies in Africa and India) on casks that weren't quite up to snuff when compared to the french ones.
The fact that it is added in early fermentation means it gets to still keep as sweet as it gets while being a wine and not just grapejuice with booze mixed in.
GREAT Show guys!
Nice job Jay, I did not even see this one, this is great stuff.
I just bought my first bottle of Tawny Port! After this wonderful video I will relax and enjoy it 🍷🍷 thanks!
Good choice ... I prefer tawny to ruby. If you enjoyed it by the fireplace it must have been unforgettable. 🍷🍷🍷
Greetings from Portugal.
Love this!
It's a shame I only discovered this video today, amazing!
Excellent.. !!
The way you described .... really osm.. thanks bro
Make more videos! these are great and very insightful!
This is the best video i've seen in a long time.
Slow down the speed and you won't regret it.
Fantastic video!
I enjoyed this so very much
Jay, you NEED to get Topher back in front of the camera and film more more wine videos! Everyone is all about that scotch these days. That or hoppy IPA's.
I like both but I am clueless when it comes to wine!
I love this video!
I subscribed and liked , love it ,informative with a good chuckle ,I've got to get the store and see if they have my favorite ,Taylor 20 year old ! Keep up the good work!
Awesome video.
You need to bring this show back. I want an episode on why I can't find a Pino Noire that isn't thinner than Kool Aid.
Awesome way to explain our very own Portuguese Port Wine. See you soon, for wine and food pairings, here in Portugal ;)
This video was awesome....
I've always liked Port. I should drink more of it
This is fun! I wish you had more videos about wine :)
I loved this...you earned a subscriber
Loved it
Does Topher make any more wine videos? They're incredibly entertaining, and I'd love to watch more!
This video was good, funny too!

What a great video! Where are you? No vids in 2 years!
very entertaining and informative
They use port wine, a bit watered down, during communion at my church. Yummy!
Love this , this guy is very funny
This video is old but I am smashed on that Taylor Fladgate on his left. It's my first bottle, I picked it without any port knowledge and now it will definitely will be my regular evening drink. Fruity, relaxing and deep. So delicious.
It is strong and I can't put it down. Is it proper? Probably not. Do I usually have this much... never. But tonight I am a bad girl and I am having a great night so I am just going to poor another glass....
Salute.
learning where Portugal was on the map reminded me of history class.
Geography*
The first port I tried was San Sebastian Ruby Port... and I'll never forget it as well !!!!!! :_( (gets choked up) ...good bye my friend.
Please Start this series back up! I want to learn about more wines other than Port and Rose. You made the front page of Reddit!
Ahh I love English monks for their fortification process, thus blessing us all with Buckfast.
This guy is great
i like this wine a lot
Very good
Cornish guy over here... all the above is factually correct. Especially the Stilton cheese dreams.
Right on @Seasets! That’s our kinda’ cheese!
i love this... porto cruz 1887👌
Great video. I clicked subscribe
thank you so much for this video.. very informative.. now I'm going to eat some Stilton and get some sleep..
Wine is good fine and well, but and old fash? Heaven!
I fucking love Stilton!!!!!
I wish you taught all my classes when I was still in school.
And to complete a part of the history behind the Porto wine - in the XVIIIth century, to enhance the quality of the wine, the Marquess of Pombal (you could say he was a proto-Prime-Minister) delineated a geographical region (Douro) where it was specifically designed to produce wine.
If you bought Porto wine, it was Porto wine you would get - and not a wine made somewhere else, with the same name.
As a curious fact - and me being Portuguese, and being of northern Portuguese descent - allow me to add: the Porto wine created an "industry" and some of the richest families up to nowadays - and it's equally satisfying - from a social, economical and historic point of view, that this wine is one of the main reasons that my country is shaped the way it is: the north (Porto) is more conservative, Catholic, Monarchist and rich; the south is more rural, poor, atheist, liberal and Republican.
Vocês tripeiros raspam tudo o que têem a vosso favor só para se tentarem comparar à CAPITAL. Muito gostam vocês de vir fazer essa separação entre Norte / Sul. Até já vi tripeiros dizerem que Sagres é bebida do Sul e Super Bock do Norte (sou de Lisboa e a maioria das pessoas que conheço bebe Super Bock). Vocês têem graves problemas de complexo de inferioridade.
Mas sim o vinho do Porto é simplesmente fantástico e o melhor vinho do mundo na minha opinião.
Uh... eu sou Lisboeta também (a minha família paterna é que é do norte, mas eu nasci aqui)... não entendo para que é que foi esse comentário, sinceramente.
Mas há uma clara separação no nosso país: economicamente e culturalmente: Algarve; sul (Évora e Beja); Centro: com Lisboa e Setúbal; e o próprio Norte também é um entidade (que, sinceramente, só conheço Braga). De qualquer das maneiras, estava a falar de um ponto de vista económico e histórico: e não me retraio do que disse: e afirmo ao mesmo tempo, sou um orgulhoso Alfacinha - e Português até ao fim dos meus dias.
Cumprimentos!
Essas separações culturais são muito pouco evidentes, é bem maior a diferença linguistica entre Norte / Centro / Sul que qualquer outra coisa. Não sei onde foste buscar que o norte é mais rico, monárquico, católico e conservador que o sul porque sinceramente isso não é verdade. Portugal é Portugal e somos todos portugueses, obviamente que cada região é como é e há diferenças entre elas sim, mas em coisas mais superficiais como gastronomia, arquitetura, clima, sotaque, etc e não em ideologias. Do ponto de vista económico também não vejo assim tanta diferença quanto isso. Comentei porque estou farto de ver tripeiros a criar divisões onde elas não existem, não sei porquê, parece que não se orgulham do resto do país e querem ser um país à parte.
Pois bem, quando eu falei de diferenças culturais, falo de experiência própria: a minha mãe é Alentejana - de Beja, e tive a minha quota parte de vivência entre os Alentejanos. Vivi um ano no Algarve, e visitei todas as grandes cidades, e até pequenos aglomerados, como Monchique. Conheço mais a realidade Lisboeta, é verdade, mas também conheço a de Setúbal - mais especificamente Almada e Sesimbra. De resto, como já te tinha confidenciado, tenho um costado Minhoto, e tenho também grande vivência com Braga.
Dito isto, que não passa de experiências pessoais, posso voltar a dizer-te: há diferenças culturais. Grandes ou pequenas: há. E não são apenas sotaques: isso é minimizar e muito, e desconhecer a realidade do nosso país, muito francamente.
Olha, sem mais demoras, digo-te que sou formado em História... e é sempre aquilo que mais lemos, ouvimos e até poderemos testemunhar: os principais centros industriais de Portugal estão no norte, desde o século XVIII. Os polos agrícolas (o Douro) de elevada importância... estão no norte. Aqui vemos as grandes fortunas - em grandes famílias... bem mais organizadas e hierarquizadas que na metrópole. Daí que a Monarquia foi restaurada no norte pelo Paiva Couceiro (porque este sempre foi mais conservador, católico e monárquico que o resto do país); daí que o Estado Novo veio através de um golpe que veio de Braga; daí que o Estado Novo deu uma importância imensa aos grandes industriais (detentores de enormes capitais... logo, influência/ apoio ao regime) do norte; logo que o PSD e o CDS têm mais posicionamento no norte, que no sul.
A pobreza do sul, que tens que pôr o Algarve e o Alentejo - é estrutural e vem de muito detrás. Aliás, não é por acaso que se diz que a República se fez por esses lados, por telégrafo: porque ninguém queria saber da República para nada. Queriam era melhorias nas suas condições de vida. Daí que o Estado Novo simplesmente vá promover os programas agrícolas (numa tentativa de atingir auto-suficiência e de manter as grandes fortunas Alentejanas no apoio ao regime) e nada mais. Do Algarve, nem falo... porque foi sempre um pólo de pescadores até à ascensão do turismo, bem tarde no século XX.
Foi simplesmente isto que disse... e obrigaste-me a pôr em cima da mesa o meu "canudo" - algo que detesto fazer para justificar qualquer ponto que seja. E antes de concluir, corrijo-te: nunca disse que o norte era mais rico. Fui bem explícito quando disse que o norte ERA rico. Algo que até as próprias estatísticas de analfabetismo poderão ajudar (eu estudei analfabetismo no fim do século XIX, principio de século XX em Braga, em comparação com os meus colegas que tinham outras regiões do país: o Porto e Braga vêm com resultados bem interessantes. Claro, nunca ultrapassam Lisboa - é a capital - mas são o número 2 definitivamente).
Concluíndo: sim, o norte é mais Católico (eu, como praticante, observo isso evidentemente), que o sul. Isso nota-se muito na adesão dos fiéis a festas religiosas, ou ao culto - que é bem superior que em Lisboa ou Alentejo. Como monárquico, deixa-me dizer-te que à excepção de Lisboa, o norte é o maior pólo monárquico do país - em número de aderentes à Causa Real. Queres falar sobre casamentos homossexuais, aborto ou eutanásia com malta do norte? Irias ficar bem surpreendido com as respostas: que vão desde uma aceitação ("desde que não seja à minha frente"), até uma clara manifestação de repulsa. Se isso não é pontas de conservadorismo, eu não sou Português.
Abraço.
I like port wine every week with my personal lifestyle parties ♥️ love from Indian Travel Vlogger
Yes!!!!
Just as I'm waiting for my port to arrive (:
When I took over a friend's apartment I found a bottle of Port in the kitchen. It was the best dang thing I ever tasted. Incredible. I had to make it last because I could not find a source for an exact replacement. Now I am no longer in Berkeley and methinks that a good Port may be harder to find in central Texas. I wonder if you or Topher could make a recommendation. // Enjoyed this video. A friendly suggestion: Maybe hire a musician to write a song with better lyrics?
Subscribed so hard
That glass is nice where did you get that I like the size
Hey! Well done. I really enjoyed your video. Although Portugal also has other great wines, one of the best in the world! Supreme quality! You should try them and make videos about them too.
And finally, Portugal has a lot and amazing cheese! So try Port wine with Portuguese cheese, for example, Quejo da Serra. I'm sure you will not be disapointed!
This video aged well like a fine port wine 🍷
More please
Me and m'lady besideth me have enjoyed your video good sir. You have earned yourself a subscriber from the elite community known as reddit. G'day *tips fedora*
