Is Pitter's Port what Gordon's Wine Bar on Villier's Street sells as its house port?
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

Just spotted half bottles of Croft unfiltered LBV in Tesco for £8.99, it was in only store in Dundee where I ever saw it at full price, hoping it's a precursor to lots of it on offer at half price soon!

Pitters was always used by Real C. Velha as a bob. I know this, because I still have a Pitters Colheita 1963, bottled in 1971, which I had last year at Carvalhas and wasnt too bad. This bottle is sitting here until Alex comes around.

Sainsbury have a modest wine sale on at the moment. I only noticed one port (Graham 10 year old tawny) reduced, but there are some good prices on some Champagnes.

Availability may be an issue, though: they said I had taken the last case of the Roeda back when I ordered it in late August. Might be worth giving them a ring to confirm what they have available.

I guess in 10 years time you can buy the 2012 CR for what will be today 20 Pounds. (If you take the 2002 vintage as a precedent). So I don't think there is a need to hurry to get it now.
