Given the slating that the Cockburn Special Reserve has just received, I thought it amusing to see it on the shelf at Tesco right next to the unfiltered Noval LBV and at the bargain discount to the Noval of all of 71p cheaper!

My eye was initially attracted to the $58 Graham’s 1985.

Then I saw the “375† caveat. Whoops.

Re: Alas cheap doesn’t happen much in the US
That's my finding as well. I think i got the Qd Bom. for 35 up here, but regardless the low quantity and perceived elitism of Port/"Old wine" keep prices astronomical. I'd like to say tariffs were a factor, but they don't affect the prices of all wine this way.jdaw1 wrote:I post what I find, UK and US. Alas cheap doesn’t happen much in the US.
Soho wines was actually the most reasonable i've seen in a while, but one of my friends tackled me when i went for the third bottle. No port was lost in the process (though my cellar is sadder as a result).
