Roy: The fill levels are excellent. I purchased roughly 2 cases in the late 1990s/early 2000s, just a few years after the 1994 was released, after tasting a bottle at a Nacional vertical and absolutely loving it. 6 bottles came from a small wine shop in St. Andrews, Scotland (I went there on a weekend trip to pick up the case personally), close to a case came from the old Sam's Wine shop in Chicago, before it changed hands, and a few bottles came from other reputable shops in the US. I will be sure to try to pull the best looking bottles for FTLOPers!
If anyone is interested in purchasing additional bottles of the 1994 Noval Nacional, I have several available from the same collection as my original offering last year, for $750 apiece, including shipping within the US, or $700 apiece if you can pick them up from me in NYC or provide your own shipping label. There is a 2-bottle minimum. I also have several bottles of the 1997 NN and 2003 NN available for the same price. Please send me a PM if you have any interest, and kind regards.
Still amazing pricing on the 1994's. The 1997 is also over the top great. I've only had the 2003 a half dozen times and it just keeps getting better and better. Need a new impression though.
I am in for the 1994 if possible. If I take two will you cut the shipping in half?
I already have a 97 and I just put a 2003 on order, so I would probably want two 94's or a 94 and a 97.
sounds like a great opportunity!

That's great Russ! If you let me know what you want I'll put them aside for you. If you can provide a prepaid shipping label it's $700 a bottle. Otherwise for 2 bottles with my picking up the shipping I can do $1450 - thanks for asking. I prefer payment through my PayPal account - send me a PM so we can make final arrangements!
