Vintage Port - Number of bottles/cases

[Axel P]

I just received info (from Fladgate) that they bottled

139.600 bottles (10.600 cases of 12) for Taylor 1994 and
110.400 bottles (9.200 cases of 12) of Fonseca 1994

Knowing that houses are sometimes shy to reveal these numbers, I think it might be of interest to everyone. So if you have confirmed numbers of a specific Port (please name the source) I would be happy if you could share these.

Thanks

I use the term "tregnum" for these modern, normal-shaped, always 2.25 liter bottles. A modern term for a modern bottle. A "tappit hen" to me was a short, squat bottle with a flared knob at the top that varied in size with 2.1L and 2.25L being the most common. The last ones I've seen were used for the 1977 vintage.
