For The Love Of Port

I have seen very few for sale ...Just wonder if it is "running dry" ? Also at Barbeito ? No, no am not in the market for buying..
Luckily got 14 while the price was low ..

Hey Reidar,

you beat me by the tiny margin of 1 bottle - congrats (only 13 lying here); average price was EUR 254,- which now seems moderate.

Of course I have to say that my stock consists of 3 different bottling: 2013 (4), 2011(3) and the rest being from 90ies.

Not even dare to talk about availability of 1795T (3) or 1789T (1)...

I cant speak for how much remains at Barbeito. A quick look on Cellartracker shows approx 175 bottles currently held by members.

Wow, Andreas , only three Barbeito 1795 T available... I have 12, among them numbered 11/23 and 12/23 of the last 23 Ricardo bottled in 2005. I also got these two signed by Ricardo.

Most bought at the Norwegian State Monoploy from 2000 onwards, price about $ 1.000 each including 25% VAT. Most probably the cheapest around at that time.

Also 3 1795 CVM T . Two bought at Garrafeira for EUR 810 in 2002. Got back about 10% of the VAT... Look at their prices noe. ( Price today EUR 3.450 )

For a long time I had been wondering whom I was going to ask to contribute some very old and rare Madeira bottles for the next tasting.... and now it seems I found two worthy candidates at once...
