Agree, These are very nice wines and great values. I can now get them at a shop not too far from me.

2015 was a great year for Chocapalha!

Horacio Simoes Rare Cask 74

Very nice bottling.

But I am quite partial to most Horacio Simoes.

Just found and snagged 4 bottles of Niepoort Redoma Brano Reserva 2005 at $35 each.
Hoping they still are dinking as well as my last bottle did a year ago.

Good price. They are, IMO, at their peak and should be consumed in the near term. I have had some bottle variation with them recently, some showing some oxidation. Very enjoyable still.

>>Niepoort Redoma Brano Reserva 2005

Agreed. Very nice. Definitely some bottle variation. One I had recently was "pop & dump". The other two were very good, but don't wait at all. Pop and pour for these is fine. They don't need a decant. I have one bottle left and will finish it soon.

An AWESOME wine!

Elys picked up a couple of bottles of Pacheca Superior from two different vintages. First time seeing them for sale. Only previously have I tasted at Portuguese wine event. $13 each, Pacheca could be the new benchmark for value for Douro dry wine! Really well done wines with elegance and purity at a price that is hard to beat. Funny thing is, she bought they wines are a real mom & pop liquor store in Portuguese section of Lowell, MA. They have a great line up of $4-25 Portuguese wines, but is hardly a wine shop. More Bud light and cigarettes if anything.

Without having them side by side, I found the Pacheca reminding me of Crasto Superior, but the Crasto looks to be almost double the money.

[Eric Ifune]

Got a couple of Luis Seabra 2017 Xisto Ilimitado Tinto.

[Andy Velebil]

A case of 2017 Post Scriptum de Chryseia. Need a good quality but reasonably priced Douro for a house wine.

[Moses Botbol]

6 packs of Ramos Pinto Duas Quintas Reserva 2013 "25th Anniversary". 6 packs included a box 6 of Schott Zwiesel Tritan Ivento Red Wine Glasses for $200. Twist my arm...

[Andy Velebil]

I’m in telluride and found a 2016 Prazo de Roriz douro wine for $17 at a local store. Pretty good QPR.
