Hmm... the price doesn't even seem that outrageous for a commemorative bottling from an excellent year for Colheitas. I'm going to have to look into this!

I checked the BBR web site - nothing there that I could find. Do post an update here if you learn more!

I picked up a 1952 in the FTLOP offering. That was a little more in line with my budget :-)

They replied to my Facebook post:

Either you or your friends do a bit of travelling, or check with BBR, according to their website they are able to ship most wines to the United States.

Agreed, but this is a special commemorative bottling and those are always more expensive. I'll want to see what the packaging and bottle look like before I buy.
