Unfortunately, one box of 6 of the LBV had fallen whilst loading, and all 6 bottles were broken . So no 12 but only 6 bottles of the 1997 Niepoort LBV for me

While getting few bottles for bbq could not resist port section and picked up bottle of Krohn 2005 unfiltered LBV.
Re: Latest buy
6 x Taylor's 1970 VP. At £70 a bottle i thought this was well priced. Levels are top shoulder or in neck but unfortunately most of the labels have slipped off.
Re: Latest buy
That is a good price. Most that I have seen recently have been around £100. Well done!Alex M wrote:6 x Taylor's 1970 VP. At £70 a bottle i thought this was well priced. Levels are top shoulder or in neck but unfortunately most of the labels have slipped off.

1 bottle Fortnum and Mason LBV 1997 b0ttled 2002 produced by Burmester. Although not labled as traditional or unfiltered states on label that light deposit expected, also has forced cork so expecting something nice. Came as part of job lot of 11 bottles wines and spirits from local auction.

Ferreira 85 (which in my speed reading of email on my phone lead me to think this was somehow a Fonseca 85 @ 50$) - D'oh
