It’s just a way of life that townies struggle with

How much are we talking for a nice bottle

I picked up a bottle of Ruby port in Morrisons the other day for £7.50
It’s ok too
Even the best ones in supermarkets are only £10

I have a bottle of 1961 Krohn Porto Colheita, bottled 2009, that I've been trying to sell as I think it's worth about £200. The wine buyers weren't having it so I may just sit and imbibe the fucker in a couple of sittings this Christmas.

yeah you dont really need to spend more than a tenner to get something nice...you can of course.


they all tend to come from a few producers anyway

will have a look ,cheers

I came across it on a city break in Porto when I visited the winery. I don’t think it’s available in the shops here.I have bought online though for less than £20 a bottle. It really is a lovely drop.

It's really bloody nice, but I only ever drink it at Christmas. The M&S one is pretty good value and they usually have it on special at this time of year.

prefer white port but prefer a good glass of wine over either.

Never really had it untill a few months back, bought a cheap bottle from Lidl and enjoyed it! - gonna get a decent one this Xmas to go with the cheese board.

 

[Brian Griffin]

I like a drop occasionally.

Does anyone drink this at any other time than Christmas?
the Mrs (stuck a pic up years ago, tough) said we should get a bottle, but we've got last years left..got me thinking though, is it still a popular drink or dying out?

My old loves it , could drink a bottle a night , try gordons wine bar next time you go to london for an away trip

Have with a cigar...

Now that sounds really good.

But with whisky instead of the port.

And without the cigar

Normally go through a couple of bottles a week

 

[Rick O Shea]

I always have a bottle of Port in the house regardless of the time of year. Although I do look forward to Christmas as we usually get a couple of bottles sent as gifts from our Portuguese suppliers.
