Port in Los Angeles?

Hi all,

I was wondering where I can buy some vintage port in Los Angeles as I'm travelling there from Australia and our market is extremely limited. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Hi,

Would love to buy them but don't know if they can be shipped to Australia or if they would damage on the way?

Cheers

Andrew.

Re: Buying vintage port in Australia.

Yeah it's the latest offer and awaiting shipping,the site was grand millesime got quite a bit of variety and some good pre delivery prices as well.
I ordered a few bottles of 77 Quarles Harris vp and a few Gould Campbell's 83 vp's which for Australian prices I thought was good.

Cheers Andrew.

@paul the shipment I mentioned is suppose to be coming straight from the estates and has been there since bottling and being shipped in refrigerated crates,so it should be in excellent condition. :D

I have been meaning to pick up some of the other older vintages . I've had a 78 previously which was ...
