I have an oportunity to buy a case of each port. I want to know what people think is the better port. And if you think this is a good deal?

Case of 12, Grahams 1975 vintage port $285
Case of 12, Boa Vista 1970 vintage port Offley

Thanks,
BG

1975 was a marginal year in Oporto. The 75 Graham was poorly rated, and I'm sure 30 years have not improved the poor start.

The 1970 Offley was simple and unidimensional, and was likewise poorly rated.

Sounds like someone is trying to dump some low-quality Port.
