Case of .375l Kopke 1977 Colheita

Post by lalowine »

A friend has a case that may possibly be for sale - any idea what the value is? Not sure of storage conditions, I have pictures, but really just starting to do the research. Thank you for any input!

When was it bottled? The bottling date is usually found on the back label on Kopke Colheitas. That can pretty dramatically affect the value, as the longer the Port has been kept in cask prior to bottling the more mature and tawny it will be.

And where are the bottles located. Prices are very different in different countries.

I will check on when it was bottled - it is located in the US and I will get the city/state info when I get the date bottled.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers :)

As Glenn and I live on the west coast, it's safe to assume we may have an interest. Depends on location, price, and provenance.
