Anyone seen M&S starting to re-fill the shelves with VP yet? If so, what vintage?

I'm on the lookout for a 1989 if anyone sees it - around me last year i managed to find one bottle of it but otherwise it was all 1994.

I recently acquired a bottle of the M&S Special Reserve, and noticed the 1994 and 2007 vintages are on the shelf. Both are made by TFP - I guess the 2007 must be the Skeffington since the Morgan is no longer made.

Do they, TFP, also use the Romariz line as a BOB?

Many other styles (tawny, ruby, white) but no VP at one local store here atm.

I thought i'd bump this thread - if anyone sees the 89, please buy for me!

i notice the 07 got an IWC gold medal this year as well (if that means anything these days...)
