Assuming you also resisted the temptation of the Dow/Warre/Vesuvio 600cl bottles? Well done.

Plus a whole bunch of young Tappit Hens which are not compatible with my other obligations at the moment.
Nacional 1996 for £465, and 1999 for £495 also feel like bargains (especially given Hedonism’s usual pricing) - but also not tempted.winesecretary wrote: ↑09:28 Mon 27 Nov 2023 Some bargains in the Hedonism sale - Vesuvio Capela 2016 at £75 and Graham Stone Terraces 2015 at £100.

How do you deal with shipment here ?

Your completely correct but I have now resolved this issue .... mind you there stock has gone down as a result !winesecretary wrote: ↑21:19 Mon 27 Nov 2023 @ mcoulson - Suspect you are confusing them with Garrafeira Nacional in Lisbon. Gosh I did love buying from them pre-brexit.
Very much so but they just encourage me to drink more !winesecretary wrote: ↑23:24 Tue 28 Nov 2023 I thought the tappit hens were good value at the discounted price as the premium over bottle release price had vanished.
I got Pocas 2016 for less than £25 a bottle and Niepoort 2019 LBV for £15 (also an Amex offer with waitrose which can be combined)Alex Bridgeman wrote: ↑22:09 Sat 30 Mar 2024 Waitrose is having their “buy 6 bottles and get 25% off” sale.
So I’ve just bought my summer supply of Kopke 10YO White and Kopke 2010 White Colheita.
