Hi D Cameron and welcome to the board. These bottlings ( Commemorative ) could be hard to track. Post everything that`s on the lable and maybe someone can help. And if you`ve read thru the back posts on this subject you`ll get an idea what problems and negativity you`ll have trying to sell a single bottle of anything. winoweenie

Might want to try contacting one of the major auction houses, either Zachys-Christie's in New York, or Sotheby's in Chicago. They might be able to at least estimate the value of it for you. Good luck!

WC, If they don`t have a track record on these wines the clerks tracking prices have no idea what the old pidgeon bottles are worth as they `haint drunk one in their whole put-to- gether.I`d go to the trouble but D can see if Parker or Broadbent mite have some comment on this wine in their Port books. winoweenie
