Maybe you shouldn't claim you've bought them until they are in your possession. They might rescind the sale. I hope not.

I saw those and thought about picking up one. Are they VP or Garrafeira?
They're VP, at least as close as one gets back then. Here's the 1815 label we had at Roy's 50th.

Taylor's Very Old Single Harvest Port 1964. The most exclusive and expensive port I've bought so far!

That's a good price for any part of the world. Cheapest I see on wine-searcher is US$600.

Received a 375 ml of kopke white 30 year old tawny as a gift. I haven't read much about aged whites but I hope it's good.

I actually wasn't looking towards picking up anymore '62s since I already had a bunch of the Grahams Malvedos and a couple of bottles of the Sandeman. A retailer I've frequented had a killer deal on these wines, so I pulled the trigger and purchased all of their remaining stock.

Not quite this week but very recently picked up a couple of bottles of the 2011 Quinta do Vesuvio VP.
The retailer must have gotten me in a weak moment as I couldn't resist buying a magnum of the same wine.
