Upcoming auction in London. Vintage Ports, mainly Fladgate but also some Symington labels. Nothing really old, but some larger formats.
Also a lot of rare/unusual Madeira.

I'm planning to bid on some of the Madeira lots. If anyone is interested in splitting any of these, please let me know.

If could get the shipped for cheap, I'd be all over this.

So much goodness in one auction... wish I could be there in person to bid! I could spend several thousand $$$ at that auction if not careful.

Lots of goodness there, with beautiful looking bootles. But Christie's has been one my least favorite auction houses for ease and cost of shipping, and in this case we throw in an ocean, so I will pass.
The distinguished firm of Wiese & Krohn ... has remained independent and family owned throughout its history.
Umm, it has been more than two years since they were bought out by TFP, and thus I would say no longer independent. I would expect more correct information in their current catalog.
