Re: port ****.....AKA best friend of a cigar

Port for me is another slippery slope.........Having tried a few bottles of 77 Fonseca in the past I decided to buy a case. The 27 taylor should be interesting as well as the 48 Fonseca.... I haven't tried either....yet. One thing I HAVE learned is that port can really sneak up on you at 20 something percent alcohol by volume!

Re: port ****.....AKA best friend of a cigar

I drink wine on occasion with my wife who's a Wine lover. If you don't mind me asking, what does a bottle of that 27 taylor go for? I've been to Taylor winery in Upstate NY is that the same place?

The Taylor '27 was a little over a grand... real port is only from Portugal although it is made in other places. Kind of like "Champagne" and "sparkling wine".....I wish it was made in upstate NY ...I would live in the place!

Hey cigartexan..I have had several bottles of '63 Taylor in the past and they were incredible ...haven't tried the '63 Fonseca but I'm sure it will be a winner...all of the '63's I have ever had were top notch, even the 63' Cockburn which doesn't get very high ratings (88 wine spectator) was excellent.

Re: port ****.....AKA best friend of a cigar

Wow.

And to think, when I bought a bottle of '95 Vintage Fonseca, I was thinking to myself, "That's pretty old". I stand corrected.
