Re: Niepoort VV
If i can sell the bottles for that price, i will be happy. Otherwise i will keep them, and celebrate something great in my life. I don't think you'll ever find someone to buy at the kind of prices you are looking for. If Niepoort would pay anywhere near that; take it! Even at auction, you still hav...

Re: Bordeaux Recommendations
Consider some old Italian standby like Chianti (Monsato, Selvapiana, or Rufinon Ducale Reserva), Barbarossa, or Barolo. All wines with long aging potential and many deals to be found. Beyond that, there's always Musar, but prices are rising very quickly. Older vintages are become super rare and/or V...

Re: Is Port Kosher?
There are a few kosher ports on the market. I believe Quevedo has one, along with Taylor and few lesser known brands. The main thing is the spirit has to certified kosher. Kosher marker is a great opportunity for those producers who want to go after it. Jews like to drink, buy things in respect to h...

Re: Latest buy
2 - 1.8L's of 1963 Dow Used to have a couple of dozen of these, and just finished the last of mine over Christmas. A very pleasant drink. The cellar they are from is quite extraordinary. All of the port I have had from this cellar are the best examples of the vintages I have had. Basically these 63...

Re: 1985 & VA
Never having noticed this thread before I read it with the eagerness of a child. I have not had any difficulties with VA in the 85s but then again I have never tried the Croft or the Niepoort. I wonder if any of the earlier protagonists would care to update their findings with a few more years of e...

If it's been cellared well, you're going to have a heck of a treat when you open that bottle.

Re: IVDP glasses and square stems
I am a fan of the IDVP glasses. Riedel glasses are too big and too fragile. Plus, I am too deep into IDVP glasses to change course.
