Re: Taylor's 1945
If you're British, you'll know what is meant with the description: 'it was like a liquid Christmas pudding' It was tested straight after decanting, nothing special, though great depth...The transformation at two hours was pretty remarkable and it was a truly outstanding port. Because of the terrible...

Well it would be from mwhwine.co.uk but it seems quite small-time / home-based

Re: Should I buy this 1945 Taylor's?

Re: Should I buy this 1945 Taylor's?
Haha what I mean is, I have no real knowledge of how to assess whether it's likely to be ok inside - it will be drunk straight away, not kept.
Price is about £600 per bottle

Should I buy this 1945 Taylor's?
The description from the seller: Here are the photographs of my 3 bottles of Taylor 1945. The levels of the 2 on the left are excellent whilst the one on the right is mid shoulder. I bought these ports off a wine merchant in the north of England who bought them off a customer who inherited them. I c...

Re: Present for port-loving Dad's 70th
Thanks for the further most recent replies, apologies for the delay in responding!
I'm still umming over the 1945 Taylor for £550 or just some decent port to be shared.
I'll ask as advised on here for a quality report/photo.

Re: Present for port-loving Dad's 70th
MWH Wine Merchants are apparently very close to me and have some of the ones you mention but I can never tell from wine lists if I'm allowed to buy single bottles haha

Re: Present for port-loving Dad's 70th
Thanks guys
I had read somewhere that T92 was really good as an early vintage which is why I thought it was ok!
I've found a single bottle of Warre 1963 for about £160-£180 but haven't tried really hard yet to see if that's a rip-off
I think my dad actually has a bottle of T70 stored somewhere!
