For The Love Of Port

…and beware the elevated cork!

BPW wines is a retailer that acquires and sells off collectors' cellars. Today they posted an offering that included 3 bottles of Croft 1977 at $69 apiece. After a very brief scan of Cellartracker reviews and prices on Wine-Searcher.com, I decided to buy all 3 (sorry folks, I guess I was greedy!). J...

I'd like to join.
Best, ER

Hi-Not sure if I'm missing something, but I just subscribed to the newsletter (in part to get in on this offering, though I'm sure the newsletter will be worthwhile on its own), and I don't see any posted newsletters most recent than November 2013. Will a new one be coming out tomorrow?

Was this the store you bought it from by any chance?

Michael, be sure to check out dry sherries as well, like fino. Some of my favorite wines. They go great with Spanish tapas and are often really good buys ($15 and under).

As per the subject line.

For those of you for whom port just isn't sweet enough...

Seriously, though, I have had El Candado PX and it is glorious. As you probably know, it's a bit too thick and sugary to drink but it's pretty friggin' awesome over vanilla ice cream.

As per the subject line, the e-mail wine retailer Garagiste, based in Seattle, is offering Calem 2011 Vintage Port for $40 for a 750mL bottle.

Anyone have any opinions about Calem? From what I've been able to find, they seem to produce 2nd-tier VPs (at best).

Well it's gone now. Let me know in 20 years how it turns out!

Hi-
Perhaps I'm too suspicious but wondering why this is only $19.99...
FTLOP reviewed it and gave it an "89". Ferreira is, as I understand it, a highly reputable port house.
What's the catch here?
