I saw that sale today in my email, but I was at work and they block access to any alcohol websites. I got home tonight and checked but they were sold out.

Some really nice QPR's you got there. I am a huge fan of all 3 of those ports. Great pickup.

I like the '94 Graham's a lot. It's a very nice Port that is still improving. I've had the '97 Vesuvio once and it was good, but needs a little more time.
The '85 Warre's, although I have 4 or so bottles of it, is untested yet.

You are right on the money with the Graham's and Vesuvio though the latter is quite quaff-able at the minute. Must resist the temptation.

The 1985 Warre's has a special place for me. I think I have drunk it around 4-5 times in the past 3 years on different occasions. It is in a good place drinking wise at the minute but no doubt it has time to go before it hits its absolute prime drinking. More developed than the Fonseca 1985 but less than the 1985 Graham's from my experience. I like VPs mature most of the time and with that preference I'd prefer the Warre's over the Fonseca currently. Luckily I own a case of each of them.

I like the '85 Fonseca a lot as well. It's still improving at 37 and I'd say only recently (last 2 years or so) started drinking really well. I think I have a case and a half in the cellar. No hurry on drinking those.

12 x 2015 Graham's LBV

$25 at K&L... but I may have cleaned them out.

I first had this right after it was released, but before it was in the US, and made a mental note to get some once it reached our shores. But then I couldn't find a good price when it first got here, so have just been keeping an eye out. I finally found some!

I think it's on par with the 2011 Crasto or 2012 Carvalhas, both of which are VP-level LBVs. Maybe not quite as good as the 1994 Noval or 1994 Pocas, but we won't know that for sure for another 20 years!

What year bottled for the 37? And it is such a tasty bottle.
