Try wine-searcher....
As far as ports go 1961 is a tough year...very few (I'm born in 1961).
1967 is a better year for Single Quinta Vintage Port (SQVP). I've had the Taylor Vargellas--it is superb. Look for an OPORTO bottled one.

Those are both pretty rare years for Port, but there are a few, particularly for 1967. If you are willing to branch out into Madeira you will find more options and 1961 was a great year for Bordeaux (I own and have tasted a few). Since they aren't common Port years, I'd suggest you search on any of the various wine retail index sites, probably starting with wine-searcher.com. I quickly found a 1967 Madeira in the UK, and lots of 1967 Ports. 1967 Kopke Colheita is available from retailers in Germany, Portugal, the UK, and the Netherlands. There are also some US sellers, but you mentioned shipping to Europe. What country are you in?
