24 bottles of Quinta de la Rosa Reserva from 2004. The price at 35 Euros each was impossible to resist.

Also found recently some 2000 Quinta de la Rosa Tinto Reserve, and 1994 Quinta da Passadouro (bottled for Niepoort) Tinto. This is one of the benefits of living here. Now with five shops that call me when they obtain well stored, older bottles of table wine. Not Port, unfortunately. But I am drinking less old and great Ports here in general, except on tours or at the homes of friends/producers.
