It's late bottled. Bottled in 1963.

Re: 1958 Taylor QdV
Even more unique then, or perhaps common then and not so much now. I've seen Taylor LBV, and I've seen Taylor Quinta de Vargellas. But I had never seen Taylor Quinta de Vargellas LBV prior to this bottle.Andy Velebil wrote:It's late bottled. Bottled in 1963.

Any Douro bake on that bottle? Have had mixed results with older Vargellas bottlings.

Re: 1958 Taylor QdV
How much life would a 1958 LBV have in it now?
I see it traded at $215, and I gather with no buyer's premium.
1958, does anybody here have an opinion on that vintage? It's not mentioned very often, anyway.

Not a great vintage, but not horrible either. Personally, at that price an easy pass for me.Brian C. wrote:How much life would a 1958 LBV have in it now?
