Re: Port for sale by retailer
Some bargains in the Hedonism sale - Vesuvio Capela 2016 at £75 and Graham Stone Terraces 2015 at £100. Couldn’t resist one of each of those. Plus a whole bunch of young Tappit Hens which are not compatible with my other obligations at the moment.

Assuming you also resisted the temptation of the Dow/Warre/Vesuvio 600cl bottles? Well done.

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Nacional 1996 for £465, and 1999 for £495 also feel like bargains (especially given Hedonism’s usual pricing) - but also not tempted.winesecretary wrote: ↑09:28 Mon 27 Nov 2023 Some bargains in the Hedonism sale - Vesuvio Capela 2016 at £75 and Graham Stone Terraces 2015 at £100.

How do you deal with shipment here ? Do they just ship it and you hope with regard to customs ??winesecretary wrote: ↑09:28 Mon 27 Nov 2023 Some bargains in the Hedonism sale - Vesuvio Capela 2016 at £75 and Graham Stone Terraces 2015 at £100.

@ mcoulson - Suspect you are confusing them with Garrafeira Nacional in Lisbon. Gosh I did love buying from them pre-brexit.

Re: Port for sale by retailer
I thought the tappit hens were good value at the discounted price as the premium over bottle release price had vanished.

With a Tesco Club Card, the Taylor 2018 LBV is only £10.
Re: Port for sale by retailer
At Sainsbury's the Graham 2018 LBV is also £10 currently
Re: Port for sale by retailer
Aldi currently listing Fletcher's 2017 LBV for £8.99 a bottle. If they actually have any to sell, this might be a bargain.

Nickolls & Perks is having a sale on some items. Fonseca 2000/2003/2011/2017 for £54, for example. Worth a check, in my opinion.

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Waitrose is having their “buy 6 bottles and get 25% off” sale.
So I’ve just bought my summer supply of Kopke 10YO White and Kopke 2010 White Colheita.
