Details
The following lots (1-225) have all been shipped direct from the producers for this sale. Due to generally high temperatures prevailing in Europe during August and September buyers should be aware that a few of these lots may not be available for collection or delivery until late October
Lots 1-244 are lying in Gloucestershire at Christie's designated warehouse, (Octavian)
Offered duty-paid, but available in bond except for lot 1 and 339-342 which are offered duty-paid only
SHIPPED FROM THE CELLARS OF FERREIRA
Ferreira, extremely old-established, is Portugal's biggest producer of quality Ports. Ferreira also houses the most extensive collection of old vintages, dating back to the early 19th Century, so it is hardly surprising - though much appreciated - that they could send for this sale port made the autumn I entered the wine trade, half a century ago. MB
Ferreira, Crusted--1952
Strictly speaking 'Crusted' Port can be a blend of more than one vintage bottled early to develop a 'crust' (sediment) like a true vintage Port. This is a blend of different young Ports of the 1952 vintage. MB
