Book Discussion

    This is a great book although it is out of print. Good basic intro to the port wine trade. And there is a great section covering most of the major port wine houses with reviews of their different port products including rubies, tawnies, whites, as well as Vintage, LBV, and Single Quinta offerings. The reviews run up to the 1994 vintage for many houses. Lots of photos of the diffent offerings as well.Posted on Jan 5, 2004

    Lacrima Christi wine-Old
    By stratus1

    I have a bottle of Calissano Lacrima Christi wine that I have been told is from
    before Prohibition. It is still a sealed bottle. Says Luigi Calissano & Figi, Alba, Italy
    on the label, 11% alcohol, 12 fluid oz. Can anyone tell me anything about this?
    Is it worth anything? Would any collector be interested in it? How old is it?
