You can buy it online for $113 plus shipping (see link). I own it along with several others (Fonseca, Taylor Fladate, Quinto de Noval) fom that very nice vinatge, because from first child was born that year and I look forward to celebrating with it on her wedding day (or college graduation or something). It sold for $50 when new, rating an impressive 95 out of 100 score from Wine Spectator. "A big, tough, young vintage Port that's closed and difficult to taste. Emits lovely aromas of chocolate, berry and plum, and is full-bodied with lots of sweet, fruit flavors and masses of velvety tannins. Long, sweet finish. Best after 2010. 11,000 cases made." The overall vintage in Port rated a 99 out of 100, "Classic vintage; superlative structure, fabulous harmony"

$115 per bottle

This Vintage is beginning to show some of the wonderful characteristics of bottle matured wine. It can be drunk now but will repay a few more years in your cellar.

"One of the greatest Graham vintage Ports ever. Incredibly intense aromas of cassis bush and ripe fruit, full-bodied and super tannic. It's got what it takes". - Wine Spectator

"Tasting Graham's is akin to chewing on a big, rich, succulent Merlot after a group of blockbuster tannic Cabernets. Sweeter and more obvious than many ports, the opaque purple-colored 1994 is fruity, powerful and rich, with an addictive hedonistic quality…A great Graham's". - Robert Parker

Vintages are meant to be loved! no longer cooked with! Please please PLEASE dont' ever pour a classic something over a cornish recreation poultry or what have you ever. you should use any wine to cook dinner with-- this wine benefits respect! it will be older than you're (or your babies once you're older). that is alongside time to be in the international, in simple terms waiting to be savored. To my awareness you won't be able to promote wine on Ebay, or any alcohol products. you are able to auction wines yet you'll ought to stumble on a wine auction. My wager is that the bottles should be nicely worth round $250 each and every. Hungerford Hill is an Australian vineyard (no longer accepted for port), and 1980 is a lengthy time period in the past. I did locate a number of their bottles in an auction record for approximately $50, from 'ninety 8 or so. an extra twenty years ought to bump up the linked fee slightly. i'd supply them as presents or relish them with organisation.
