We talk now and then about Vintage Port and I wanted to let members know about a reference book that friend wrote on the subject I think a several members may have an interest in owning.
This is the most comprehensive almanac on the history of Vintage Port ever written. It can easily be hailed as the "MRN of Vintage Port". This book was several years in the making and is used by auction houses to validate Lots that come to auction.
The book is called Port Vintages - The Chronicle of Vintage Ports, from the Beginning and is worth getting if you have a fascination with one of the beloved wine styles or you're just into coffee table books. It's available in 1st edition for those who care about owning 1st editions.
The author, Julian Wiseman is quite the authority on port and fun guy to share some vintages with if you get chance.
