Donated: Fonseca Guimaraens Vintage Port 1987 - £15 UK P&P

Post by Notts66 »

I bottle of 1987 Fonseca Guimaraens Port in box with funnel. Bottled in 1989 and received as a gift in 2006. Stored flat in dry cellar.

Unfortunately, I no longer drink Port so would prefer this particular bottle to go to a good home.

I am happy to post to UK addresses using ParcelForce 48hr Tracked & Signed for, the cost is £15. Alternatively you can collect from Nottingham.

I did list this for sale, but only had one offer from someone who didn't want to pay postage.

PM to arrange.

Merry Christmas!

Rob

Hello Rob. I’m sorry to be the bearer of unwelcome news. Whilst this is likely to be an OK bottle to drink, its worth is only a small multiple of the cost of postage. Have you a local friend or relation to whom it could be given?

Postage in UK is probably very expensive. In a shop you pay for this bottle 60-100 GBP

Rather surprisingly it would seem that I can't even give it away...

I'll pop it in the pot with some lamb and rosemary.
