Re: What Port(s) have you purchased this week?
I obtained 1927 Cockburn from a wine broker here in the States & I directly imported the Niepoorts from Europe. Unfortunately Niepoort garraferias are really tough to find here in the States and I needed a few additional vintages to fill out the lineup for an upcoming tasting I'm putting together.Eric Menchen wrote:So those aren't common.

2 x 2006 Kopke LBV. Not nearly as exciting as Mark J's recent acquisitions, but not something that I have seen before.

Picked up a Quarles Harris 10 Year Old Tawny Port this afternoon at Trader Joes. It's 98 degrees outside and I needed a tawny to toss in the fridge to chill down for later.

1983 Ferreira Vintage Port - single quinta... Ferreira seems to nail their single quinta bottles better than most IMO (compared to their regular vintage bottles).
