I have a quantity of miscellaneous vintage port for sale. It has been stored in a three quarters cellar in Stratford for more than twenty years. Before that some of it was in a cellar in Shere and else where in other cellars. None of it has been moved for over twenty years until the last month and it is now in my home near Farnham in Surrrey. Sadly the house in Stratford has been sold hence the need for me to move and sell it. I have drunk a couple of bottles in the last couple of weeks and it is excellent.
I would rather sell the whole lot to one buyer than sell parts of it to numerous buyers. I am happy to open a random bottle or two for testing with any serious buyer.

Ninety-nine bottles of Port, mostly fine stuff.

FYI, please do read our Standard advice to would-be vendors.

I make it 97.

Rough guess on hammer price at auction, maybe £3,200. Not sure you'll find a single buyer who is all set to part with that amount.

Alas my finances prohibit. But if somebody wants to take the lead on a consortium deal, I’m sure that would be satisfactory to the vendor.

Wish there were these kind of offerings in the US of A...

A consortium might be an idea-and I only live down the road in Farnborough! Anyone else interested PM me.

Seriously! That's a nice assortment of Port, and I'd be happy to go in on a group purchase of something like that over here. But alas...
