D'Oly 1850 Verdelho: Only 1970s Bottling?

Post by Barry Sunderland »

If I was to purchase the D'Oly Verdelho 1850, would it most likely be the '70s bottling or are there more recent bottlings?

Even on the island, when having this Verdelho yet again @ D'Oliveiras in June, it was a 1970's bottling.

Roy, I was under the impression it was an early 90's bottling.
Was I incorrect? [shrug.gif]
