Re: Torre Bella vs Bolger

@andreas - I run the data side for CellarTracker. We really appreciate those labels!

Thanks all! I am still unsure what to do here, but I think I understand the history better. I think it makes sense what Eric said - we should be the modern bottlings distinct from the historical in some fashion.

Torre Bella vs Bolger

I need some help for CellarTracker. Christies recently had some lots they labelled as Bolger, but we seem to have them as Torre Bella. I understand the history of TB is fractured, but I don't find anything really on Bolger aside from what Christies says: "The vast Torre Bella estate can trace i...

Re: Help with a mystery bottle of Port

I think this will come through... This is all I have. Thanks. That was sort of my guess - Ruby. The user basically found several bottles and many have no labels at all. It would interesting to place a time frame on it, but not really super important. https://d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/inline/4603...

Help with a mystery bottle of Port

Again, a CellarTracker user has given me a puzzle. I suspect the the full and proper label is missing, but what confuses me is the capsule is quite different. This is the only label on the bottle : https://cdn.ct-static.com/captures/27b994ea-3196-4627-8422-c5ef8ab091cd.jpg The capsule is red and say...

Paulo Cruz - non-Port fortified Douro?

Image

We had someone upload this to CellarTracker and I am more just personally curious than anything else. Is there some legal reason this would not be labelled as Port?


Thanks,

Re: Help identifying a mystery wine

Thanks, guys.

Re Madeira : it says Douro on it which is why I went to this forum vs Madeira. Producer clearly sounds like Unknown is accurate though.

Help identifying a mystery wine

I had a user on CellarTracker recently submit this wine for me to add to our database and I am puzzled. I think I understand what the wine is, but there seems to be no producer. Is this really just some 'novelty' unearthed, re-corked and labelled? Who are OP Brothers? Can anyone help explain what th...
