Sorry - not a name I've ever heard of.

There looks to be a bottle going to auction no markings but the seller is saying Shelby 22 all very curious, the closest I have found is Gilbeys - not of interest to me other than trying to work out the house - no label and nothing on capsule what's the betting the cork holds no clues either.

Always interested in obscure port wine makers and shippers, I googled immediately "Shelby Port". I didn't find anything about the port wine shipper. However, I found a quite attractive lady with that name on Facebook. She seems to be a vintage 1985 or so. Unfortunately she lives far away from me - otherwise I might be tempted to invite her to a 1985 Horizontal.

Another possibility is that it could be a non-Portuguese ‟Port”...
