keeping it for a special occasion. but it's a smallish bottle. How to serve it?
Small glasses? regular size glass will make my small measures look bad.

A tiny little glass with dessert. Prepare to pick up Radio 4 on your fillings, it's like liquid sugar.

They suckered me in. I went on a tour of Niagara falls. ended up in many places to spend money along the way.
But I liked it.

Oh I'm sure it's nice and everything, but a little goes a long way.

Perfect. I will find some suitable glasses.

Can't be good for anyone.

Since you are here Ash. The old Broad Street station near Liverpool street ever use it?
I'm moving away from the Underground to BR

No, though I think I used Holborn Viaduct. I noticed the plaque marking the site of King William Street station the other month - not sure if I mentioned it

I buy little thick-glassed Victorian rummers for just such things. They are very pleasing to drink from and make you feel like a Dickens character as you sip your Madeira or Marsala from them.

Sadly, of course, each one will set you back more than that bottle of wine did, so they are not perhaps the most practical immediate solution.

Ice wine is seriously good stuff.
