Alko offers 112 bottles of Barca Velha 1999 at 90€ - to me it seems a good deal, or what do you think? Anyone tasted it?

1999 is the latest release. I know the 1995 was release around 70 euros in Québec 5 years ago. To me 90 euros seems a bit expensive for this wine. It is good but there is plenty of equal quality products from portugal for half the price, though very different in style.

Thanks for the answer, Frédérick. I have no idea about its "fair" price, if '95 was offered at 70€ maybe 90€ for '99 is not so bargain.

Finally I get to chuckle about insane pricing, like the way the UK guys do about USA Port pricing. Wow those are some wild prices for current release Musar!
