V exciting!
Wow! Nice collection!
Got it as a lot at an auction at Zachys. Prices looked decent across other lots also. At $1225 think got a decent deal (includes buyer's premium).
Am out of storage space now though. This should be the last of my VP purchases for a while.

... Got it as a lot at an auction at Zachys.
I saw that and was quite tempted as well, but I think I have plenty of 1994 and hopefully enough 2000 Taylor (if one can ever have enough).

It was the 2000 Taylor that gave me some pause. Will be afraid to open one for some 5 years... Justified it to myself w the "low" price i ended up paying for them (fixing the price on the other bottles, was coming to $55/bottle on the T 00).

3 2011 taylors
4 2011 Dows
6 2011 Cockburns
6 2011 Niepoort
3 2011 Noval

that should salt the 2011's for me for now unless I see some screaming deals on the new Grahams Stone Terraces or on a Taylor Vinha Velha or a couple magnums...I might find the urge to get from the current 30 bottles to around 48, we will see.
should be ready to start opening a few come retirement 2029!

Local or online? Your neighbor to the north is trying to decide where to buy.
