Yes, I've bought there a couple of times and had port and wine shipped to both the Netherlands and Germany. It all worked perfectly.

Ronald, thank you for your helpful reply. Do they sent in OWC or only in single bottles?

I don't know. My first order consisted of 4 bottles, they were packed in the "standard" Portuguese post bottle packs. The second order was a complete case (Dado, so probably cardboard). I don't know how they packed it. I had it shipped to friends in Germany, and haven't seen it yet.

Anything particular you're looking at?

Well, there are multiple interesting Ports at reasonable prices (for Continental Europeans :wink: ). Always looking for that SQVP which is bedded in this beautiful OWC with book and label, especially from 1994. I contacted them by reason of shipping costs to Germany.

Michael,
When they reply, I would be quite interested to know what the shipping costs are, as I take it shipping to Germany wouldn't be much different than shipping to The Netherlands.
Thanks.
