I would echo this. When i started to get into port more, this was readily available locally at around GBP15. At that price, as Alex says, it is well worth trying. I went back for more!

I"m game to buy any bottle I've never had just to try it for the experience, so long as the price is right. The best part of this crazy love we all share is trying new things. Everything may not be a home run, but I've found some really nice Ports along the way just by taking a chance.

Many times I have opted for an unknown over a sure thing port just to check it out.
