WineBid: 1970 Madeira, Really 1870!
What's your take on this one? The label is quite aged but the capsule looks practically new...going for $105 currently.

Hi Andy,Andy Velebil wrote:Thanks was just outbid
Two things...
Someone outbid you before I posted...
Had I known that another FTLOPer had already bid, I wouldn't have brought this to anyone's attention. I wasn't going to bid on it, so I thought another FTLOPer should get a chance to bid.
Really, I only meant well...

Meant more as a joke so no worries. I saw the out-bid email and this post right after.
I too have some serious concerns over it. When it was less than $100 it was worth it, but I'm sure it will go up by the end and not sure it's worth the risk. there are some inconsistencies that are sending up red flags.

Andy, what were the inconsistencies?
