They ship, if you buy several the cost of shipping wouldnt be so bad.

It will be the second 30yr that I get to try. At that price it was only a bit more than most 20 Yr tawnies... Couldnt pass on it!

Am not confident enough though that I'll love it that much more than a 20 yr, hence only getting one bottle...

3 x 2009 Fonseca Vintage (half bottles). Now, the youngest Ports I own. And after I swore that I wouldn't buy any new Vintages after 2003.

How is this? I've seen this special reserve lately for about $25.00, but haven't picked one up yet (due to its price when compared to other reserves and LBVs).

I only see one tasting note: http://www.fortheloveofport.com/ftlopfo ... 12&t=13929
