The Taylor 1985 should be delicious. It’s just over £100 retail, so you should expect something like £50 to £60. Most of the rest are nice enough Ports — if not badly kept — but of little resale value. Likely, not worth the cost of posting.

Rather than sell them for small money, have you considering giving them to you late husband’s friends, with which to toast him? Likely, it is the best-value purpose for these bottles.
