Does anyone have an opinion on the 1963 Miles Sercial and 1973 Miles Verdelho? They are both available at a local retailer. The 1963 Sercial is $160, and the 1973 Verdelho is $100. Thanks.

Those sound like compelling prices.

Thanks, Moses. Have you tried either of them? I haven't been able to locate any tasting notes.

Can't find any notes on those specifically, but I'm generally a Miles fan. In my experience, the dryer styles tend to be a bit sweeter than the same 'nominal' style from Blandy's etc.

The only Miles I've had was a 10 year old Malmsey that I wasn't impressed with, so can't help you out sorry.
