Re: Unknown port
Ok then gents, as nobody wants to play the game, the bottle is (somewhat disappointingly) a Cockburn 1950
I have re-sealed it with wax as a short term measure, with a view to a speedy decanting.
Thanks for all the help and advice on this, most useful
Andy

I was merely letting you take a stab at a year and a producer. Both are legible. The only w...

Good news/Bad news
As suggested, I have peeled back and photographed and have managed to read the cork. The bad news is that as the metal came off a small amount of seepage was revealed, the cork is not in great shape either, almost falling apart. Can anyone advise on a course of action to preserve the contents? I hav...

I would welcome any help anyone could give me in identifying a bottle I recently acquired. If it helps, I believe the lettering underneath is C25G, 7, GBC
