Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
Roy,
The 2 Dow above go with the other 4 I ordered last fall on release pre-arrival which can be found earlier in this thread. But having another 6 Dow is not a bad call!
I probably will find a few more over the next year, but magnums are hard to find. I do need more 2000 and less though to bridge the gap.

A Dow's Crusted Port (2003 bottling). I think this was the first time I've ever seen a crusted Port on a California retailers shelves (Corti Brothers, Sacramento).

Perhaps in a decade we can try one at the next iteration of the "old LBVs tasting". 2009 and older!Glenn E. wrote:4 x 2007 Presidential LBV for $15 each from InVino. At that price, I had to try em!

Does the bottle say what year it was bottled? Girls are always expensiveAllan Engelsted Laurents wrote:Dow's Colheita Reserve 1965 80euros (for my 50th birthsday, just around the corner.) I know my birthyear is not the Best Portyear.

A couple of years ago I shared a 1965 Grahams Malvedos with a friend born in that year, and it was quite delicious.Allan Engelsted Laurents wrote:I know my birthyear is not the Best Portyear.
