What feedback can you give me on a bottle of Feist Colheita 1967 port, is $132.00 per bottle a fair price ?

That's about £80. I wouldn't call it a bargain and I'd want to know when it was bottled as well. It could be an old bottling that's been hanging around rather than a proper 40 yo Colheita. Investigate.
Port is basically a red drink

I bought half a dozen bottles of their 1965 Colheita about 3 years ago for 12 Euro each. They were rubbish.
That does not necessarily have any bearing on how good or bad the 1967 is.

Re: Your thoughts ?
I definitely would not buy at that price, not when you can get vintage port for about 1/3rd that price.
But I have a strong preference for vintage port over colheita port.
