Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
I bought these here in The Netherlands, from a shop which specializes in Ports and Portuguese wines. But the labels are indeed Portuguese.Moses Botbol wrote: ↑Mon Oct 30, 2023 9:20 am Very cool. Thanks.
Were those bought in your domestic market or direct from Portugal? It looks to be a Portuguese market labels.

Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
1x 1927 Dow's :D Very nice! I was indeed quite lucky to get this! Through a friend I got a question from someone who had this bottle (from her late husband, she's not a wine or port drinker), about what is was and what her options were. Once I got some pictures of the bottle, I was able to give her...

Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
Does your 2010 have a flared base, or is a normal Port bottle? They are normal Port bottles. Interesting. That's the bottle from my "later" bottles, but the back label from my 2008 bottle. My guess is that maybe my "later" bottles were bottled for the USA (since the label includ...
