Dear port lovers,

today I have an offer from and for the US-market: 8 bottles of Douro wine shippers & growers association 1963 vintage port
The bottels are in great condition (see images).

I am curious to know if there are any members here that would like to get their hands on these bottels.
If you need more info - have specific questions let me know. The wines are stored in LA.

All the best!

Can you post pictures indicating levels within each bottle? What were their storage conditions?

Yes - the owner is now getting those images (turns out there are 10 bottles found).
storing conditions will be mentioned here too - @slateshalehead I'll DM you once I have that info.

Cheers

I have owned and still have the better of a case of these. I’ve had many times. Don’t know the offering price. If good then a deal. If not then not a deal. It’s a bit past maturity but still offers a pleasant drink. Though nothing to write home about.

Here are all the pictures (10 bottles in total) including liquid levels.

Storing conditions as following:

'The bottles were kept in my grandfathers wine cellar for probably 20 years then moved to my father’s subterranean cellar for 10-15 years, then stored at a wine storage facility in Los Angeles called West LA wine storage for the last 20 years or so.'

and the last images.

As you can see - the levels are very OK and bottles in great condition.
Storing conditions have been very good. Happy to discuss pricing/selling options

please DM so we can set things up. All the best! Ruud
