Port for sale by retailer
Re: Port for sale by retailer
Nysa Vins & spiritueux on 94 rue Montorgueil had:
• Quinta de Santa Barbara, Special Reserve Tawny, at €17,50 a bottle;
• Porto Osmann 10Y, at €27,50.
The former is interesting: I thought that Santa Barbara is owned by the IVDP and used for experiments. Maybe I misremembered.

Next I must mention Nicolas . They are everywhere. In the UK they would be said to have a monopoly, but doubtless French libel lawyers would tell me that the term is ‟national champion” or some other guff. Apparently there are 250ish of them in Paris. I have photos of the dodgy-looking stuff they sell, but the data below also uses the website.

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Le Repaire de Bacchus is a much smaller chain of shops. The one at 6 Rue Bayen, 75017 Paris, +33 1 47 66 76 75 was tended by a fine damsel vaguely interested in port, who now has my card. Meanwhile:
• Andresen 1991 colheita, €32.50;
• Andresen 1995 colheita, €25.90;
• Andresen 2003 vintage, €59;
• Andresen tawny, €13.75;
• Andresen white, €14.90;
• Ramos-Pinto 2003 LBV, €25;
• Halves of Smith Woodhouse 2000 vintage, €29.75.
I think, but am not absolutely sure, that it was in a previous visit to a branch of this chain that I saw the Noval 1968 colheita for €144.85.

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Am I starting to detect that either you will be drinking more tawny / colheita than previously or else your (father's) storage problems will be solved?
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.
2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

Hooked On Wine has 2003 Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port in Magnums for $185. For the US that's a good, but not great price. (I can find it on wine-searcher for $190-$195.)

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Google threw this up when searching for something else:
Wine Deal is offering Barão de Vilar 20 Year Old Tawny. Was £24.99; now £15.99 (inc. tax, delivery £7.99).
Has anyone tried this?

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Some of those prices are really good. It's nice to see that Benchmark is finally recognizing that the market is in retreat and adjusting their prices, but they still appear to be behind the curve on the upper-end stuff. I can get 1985 Fonseca and Graham for about $10/bottle less than their offer, for example.g-man wrote:Benchmark just had some listings.
Wish I had storage space, though... I'd probably grab all of those $30 bottles if I did.

Re: Port for sale by retailer
Those are 1/2 bottles of SWC85 at 34, but 64 for the full bottle is a pretty good deal. A better deal are some of those $30-50 wines from the 70's and 80's.

Really, anyone with a stable job, secure savings, and some spending cash should be taking advantage of 2009 to build their Port stash. We're not going to see a low-price glut like this for quite a while. Second houses are showing up with fabulous prices, and even some first-houses are showing up. Fonseca 85 is going cheap all over the place. When we've drunk all the F70 and F77, THE port will be F85.
Re: Port for sale by retailer
That's a nice variety of 1985s, too... I may have to go ahead and order a smattering just to widen my mini-horizontal that I've been building. If I grab the ones from this that I don't already have I'll be able to do a 12-14 bottle horizontal all by myself, which would be pretty fun some day.
Those 1970 Real Companhia Velha are calling to me... $30 each is just crazy cheap.

But yeah, i see those 85's and am MIGHTY tempted. but i have too much to drink, i'm going to try to let this one pass
Infantado85 and Noval85 didn't fare well in our tastings, but they're there, cheap. The Noval 1/2s would be a great "intimate night" wine, if it were tasty.
Re: Port for sale by retailer
I bit. Picked up a bunch of the '85s and a handful of the '70 RCVs. Even if undrinkable I can use them for cooking!
My mini-horizontal of 1985s now stands at 16.
