Port to sell? Excellent! Please post here, with details of what you have, how stored, and where in the world it is. Please start by reading our ‘Standard advice to would-be vendors' and ‘A note to wine merchants’.

2 x Cockburn's 1985 & 2 x Taylor's 1988

Post by RLB46 »

I have 4 bottles of port which need to go to a good new home. The bottles are 2 x Cockburn's 1985 and 2 x Taylor's Quinta De Vargellas 1988. The bottles have been laid down in a dark place (pipe) in a cool room. I attach some photos:

Hello and welcome. These bottles are not valuable: you might get £17 to £20 each. (About half retail is usual in private sales, as explained here.)

Is there a powerful reason why you shouldn’t drink them? Perhaps with friends? Or give them to friends?

If you must sell them, please tell us where you are.

jdaw1 - Thank you for the response.

I am selling the 4 bottles because it is very unlikely that we will drink it.

There is no home for it through family and friends, so it should go to a home who appreciate and enjoy it.

We live in Bristol.
