Hi there,

I have a bottle of 1984 Cockburns Late bottled Vintage Port in its wooden box.

Would anybody care to estimate its worth and point me in the direction of potential buyers?

Many thanks

Its worth is some of, but not all of, £20.

Have you a friend with whom you could share it, or to whom you could give it?

Not really. I found a website that suggests it could be closer to £80 - https://www.vintageportgifts.co.uk/acat ... 7732_.html

Hi noopjay! I have no vested interest in this but I agree with JDAW that it would be hard to get more than £20. Sites like the one you mentioned will have such a product listed for years on end in the hope that eventually an unsuspecting buyer will purchase it. You can try that but I don't think you'll be getting rid of it any time soon! As JDAW suggests, it could be a wonderful present for someone if you don't drink Port.

Edit: I found this auction which sold your bottle. Typically on this forum, a quick sale price is typically half that of an auction. You can list at an auction house, but they themselves will take a cut from you, plus whatever shipping you pay to get it there.

what area of the country are you in?

I'm near Kingston in Surrey
