It can be an acquired taste - but once you've had a good one (and a bad one is bloody awful) - you acquire it pretty damn quick.

Especially on a cold, windy dark January Friday night, curled up on the sofa with the missus and the fire on...

Or a gathering of friends after a good evening and a nice meal when the cheese 'n' biccies come out...

Or on a cruise when the Merkins are troughing their cream desserts, you genteelly sipping port...

Port isn't a drink. It's liquid luxury.

6.Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port 1945 £799.97

From the amazing 1945 vintage, this wonderful port is sweet, rich and well balanced with a beautiful colour and classic nose. Drink now - 2011. A super gift! The best vintage port made last century and bottled in 1947. This vintage port is shipped in a deluxe silk lined hinged presentation box with four wine accessories (corkscrew, wine pourer, drip stopper & wine stopper) [worth £14.99] at no extra cost.

£800!!!!!!!!!!!!

wish I had not drunk it now!

If you had not drunk it then, would you now at £800? Would you have EVER got to experience it?

Anyway, it is people like you supping the occasional bottle that makes the price of the others go up!
