For those near Redmond, WA

Here's an update regarding some of the Ports at Top Foods in Redmond. These are back in the chill case. I think I may have missed a couple in the list. There are a lot of the last three, one of the Madeira, and a few of the others:

94 Dow's VP: $89.99
70 Taylor VP: $310
1948 Bual Madeira Blandy: $154
70 Cockburn VP: $125
03 Dow's VP: $90
85 Taylor VP: $150
83 Fonseca VP: $140
03 Cockburn VP: $89.99
99 Quinta do Vesuvio VP: $58 (I think this was $42 because I bought one)
03 Cockburn Quinta das Canais VP: $55
2000 Kopke VP: $39.89
2000 Porta Rocha VP: $35
2000 Warre's VP: $40.60

If you buy 4 (or more) bottles of wine, then you get 10%. With sales tax at ~10%, the prices above would be about what you'd get after tax.

Without checking my pricing notes, I'd say the last three look good but most of the others are quite painful.

It looks like the 99 Vesuvio is at $42. I bought that, plus one each of the last three. The others weren't on closeout. I previously had purchased their last two Cockburn 2000 VP's for $45.50.

I'll probably return every once in a while to see if the others go to closeout at some point.

None are worth the 10 minute drive imo, except maybe the 1999 Vesuvio which I like a lot. Otherwise, overpriced, as are most Ports offered for sale in WA State by retailers. Once in a while there' s a gem at a fair price or a real bargain on a less that exciting Port being offered. I am mostly underwhelmed by what is offered here in WA.
