That's a nice surprise, Alex. Hopefully you got it at a very good price.

Calem Sagrado Collections 30 anos (bottled 2017). This was a gift from my son who purchased it while he was in Copenhagen.

Roy,
Are you finding your bottles in small wine shops in Porto or at auction?

The company that imports Cálem into the UK is mainly a wholesaler and distributor but they recently opened a store on the High Street in Oxford.
When I visited today, I loved the complete range of Tawny and White Ports on the shelf — but it was a recently shipped, ex-cellars bottle of Calem 1985 that I walked out with.
One to open this year, probably once the sediment has settled again.
