2003 Noval VP $80 - Chestnut Hill, MA

Post by Moses Botbol »

Noval 2003 VP was on the shelf For $89.99. They give a 10% discount on I think 6+. Gary's Liquors in Chestnut Hill, MA. I have no idea of this is a good deal or not. Noval is usually top dollar and 2003 is a well regarded vintage. They also had several 2000's from big names at the same price.

That's probably a reasonable price because the 2003 Noval is an outstanding VP, but it would be tough for me to bite at that price since I've managed to pick up a full case of the stuff for an average of $38/bottle after a change in distributor (or importer, or something... I forget exactly how the story goes).

I concur. That price, while not unreasonable, makes me wish I bought more at $40 when I did.

When that discounted price came out I "backed the truck up" and bought lots of it.
