Re: 1910 Constantino Port

I note Glenn's comments and now that Christmas is over I might try again. I have to say that I cannot see much difference in my wording to those that remained in the auction and eBay assured me that they would not remain, but they did.
Anyway, thanks again for the advice.
Ron

Re: 1910 Constantino Port

Re: 1910 Constantino Port

Hi Thanks for all the help and the comments, I take note of the advice. The fact is that it will be unlikely that I will be getting around to drinking it. I do have very fond memories of the taste but that was in a "previous life". The only time that I get to enjoy a drink now is when I am...

I then tried emailing you but could not see any facility to upload photos (top or bottom) or to copy/paste, and I could not se...

Re: 1910 Constantino Port

Thanks for your replies.
I did try to add a couple of pictures but could not manage it, please tell me (in words of one syllable) exactly how to go about it. I guess you are using a different system to what I am used to, I'm normally quite capable.
Regards

1910 Constantino Port

Hello, I'm Ron from the UK. Bit of a cheek really but I would appreciate some guidance. I have a bottle of Constantino's Colheita Port. The top of the label shows "MDCCCLXXVII" (I guess 1877) and at the bottom "Engarrafado em 1971". I purchased the bottle in Faro, Portugal in 198...
