Not purchased, but took recent delivery on. (The shipping season to Las Vegas is limited!)
1907 Blandy's Bual X 4
1934 Faja Malvasia X 3 (thought to be Faja dos Padres and I'm guessing from ABSL since they're the only ones I know of bottling such wine at the time, and the stenciling on the bottle has that spidery look from the hand of Artur Olim.)
1862 Lomelino Malmsey Solera X 2
Rare Wine Company Thomas Jefferson X 6
1880 Barbeito Malvasia MMV X 1
1968 D'Oliveiras Boal X 3
Barbeito 40 year old Malvasia Mae Manuela X 3

I actually purchased these over the past 8 months or so. Only now shipped due to the Las Vegas climate.

Steve,

I found it at RWC. There were 2 listed. I grabbed one, and the other sold minutes after. In retrospect, I should have purchased the other, as well, for one of the 'gang' to buy...
