What Port(s) have you purchased this week?

Post by **Roy Hersh** » Fri Feb 24, 2012 5:59 pm

A VP I've never owned before: 4 x 1990 Graham's Malvedos ... the price was insane, so I had no choice. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

1 x Broadbent Auction Reserve (currently drinking)

2 x 1964 Krohn Colheita Branco for $90 each. Great price for an excellent Port from my birth year.

I'm sure Taylor will enjoy it one day

But, I am in no position to laugh at you, Roy. My purchase of the week was...

6 x Warre 2009

No way thats a great port. Glad to see them starting to get back to their old quality for VP's

I thought it was a "bargain" at $56 when the least expensive price I found on WS in the USA was $69.99. I really like the Port, so why not.

I almost bought a 2009 Taylor, but after tasting it's extreme tanin structure, I decided that it will not be ready to drink until 30 years after I am six feet under, so I passed. I did pick up 8 bottles of 1985 Dow's two weeks ago for a STEAL - $49.92 per bottle all in including tax.

One bottle of 1970 Noval VP. This should be interesting, one way or another.

Two bottles of Quevedo LBV 2003
½ bottle of Warre’s Quinta da Cavadinha 1996 (which I'm drinking now post lunch

)

1x Quinta do Noval 2003 VP
2x Quinta do Noval Colheita ... vintage to be revealed at a future date

These bottles had travel companions in the form of a couple of older bottles of Beringer Private Reserve Cabernet, '76 and '77, but those aren't Port, so they don't count in this thread.

Morgado Tawny, at Trader Joe's for about $7. My wife made a dish tonight that required a tawny port reduction.

6 2009 taylor vargellas vinha velha.
for my 3 year old daughter...I might have some someday as well...

6 x 2000 Quinta do Vesuvio VP with OWC. Got 4 of them (with the OWC) for $45 each and the other two for $50 each.

That 6-pack plugs a small hole in my cellar. I already have Vesuvio 6-packs from 1994, 1995, and 2005 and needed something in the middle.
