On a different matter - have you bought yourself the latest Graham Single Harvest Tawny vintage yet? I'd love to see another picture of your collection of the range of the wines.

1 x Migules 40yr in a special "Vin med mere.dk edition - made special for the danish marked and the wine shop vinmedmere.dk
It's a different blend then the normal Miguels 40yr

Re: Latest buy
That's an interesting oddity. I've never had any of their wines.

Re: Latest buy
I don’t know Migules although I can see they have declared fairly frequently since 1960 according to their website: are they popular in Denmark?
Rather alarmingly, after just buying the mixed case from Vintage Wine and Port which included the Messias 10-year-old white, I now have eight different bottles of white Port in my possession: a new record!

Re: Latest buy
I notice that VintagePort.se says that they were founded in 2015 by someone who is related to the Messias family and sell wines from the Messias reserves. Whilst their tawnies could be a mixture of family stocks, are the vintage ports likely to be straight rebranded Messias bottles?

Has anyone had the Pintas vintage 2003? I bought a couple of bottles on the recommendation of a friend, but haven't had it yet.

4 bottles of Warre's Otima 20 year Tawny Port
21 EUR - not for 1 bottle.. But all 4 bottles..
Someone made a "black week" price mistake on a danish website - so the price I paid, was the amount that I was supposed to save..

Re: Latest buy
I realised that an interesting option for a birth-year port to drink with family at Christmas could be a tawny, so when I saw this on VWP I couldn't resist.

@Alex M - that's a very good score.

I just picked up 3 of those also! It's a very nice tawny, I think you will enjoy it.

Good to know, if you're singing its praises then I would think I've not gone too far wrong.

Re: Latest buy
It is a delicious wine. I think it was one of the wines in the Kopke tasting pack - I remember thinking how nice it was.

Re: Latest buy
I saw the price of the Warre '94 and thought just the same - you have got yourself an absolute steal Mike. If there's more available at the same price, buy it!

What Alex said on the Warre 1994 - great find!
Re: Latest buy
and there I was thinking, I was about to see a post about someone on buying 9 bottles of N31.
what a great price on the Warre's 94
