Anyone know of where I can get some from the 1957 vintage?

Thanks. Ramon

Ramon,

I did a little research on the net but have not been able to find anyone currently offering a port from 1957. I'm sure there must be one out there, but I haven't seen anything at present.

If I do, I will post another reply here.

Alex

Welcome back Ramon.

The only VP worth experimenting with is Wiese & Krohn. Don't bother with the Sandeman or Malvedos vintage Ports. Ferreira is fair but just a nice tawny at the point.

My two best suggestions for you are the Kopke (best option) Colheita or the Rocha Colheita Ports that can found if you know where to look.

I assume this is your birth year. Welcome back, it has been awhile!

Alex - Thanks for keeping an eye out.

Roy - I'll try to find some. Yes, it is my birth year. Just thought it would be nice to have one next year when, as my 13-year old daughter puts it, "I'm officially OLD!". Keep up the good work.

Happy New Year!

Email me at roy@fortheloveofport.com and remind me of this thread and that '57 is your birth year (so is mine) and I'd be happy to hook you up with the way to find the bottle(s). Can't beat that eh?
