Seppelts para port



           It may surprise some of you to know that one of the
           world’s most expensive Ports comes not from
           Portugal but from Australia. I recently came across
           the Seppeltfield web site
           http://www.seppeltsfield.com.au/  Seppelts Port was
           sold off by Seppelts (Fosters Group) in 2007 and
           today trades under the Seppeltsfield name, the long
           standing name of the winery. As well as 750ml
           bottles Seppelts make a range of 350ml and 100ml
           bottles, which they sell in a presentation box. Most
           years are available back to 1882 – at a price! A
           100ml 1882 miniature will set you back A$2150.
           The photos are all of 100ml bottles.

                                                                                              1985 is A$400
