What happpened to?

Post by Moses Botbol »

Barros use to be a popular brand in the Boston metro market. I haven't seen any of their ports in some time. Are they without a distributor in MA, or stores just don't care about selling their ports?

Similarly this has happened to Niepoort in MA. Ramos Pinto was one of the more popular VP brands in town, but hardly ever seen any RP beyond dry wines and tawny.

How times have changed. Do you notice brands disappearing from the market place in your locale as well?
