HC Deb 24 January 1977 vol 924 c401W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Lord President of the Council whether he will give for the longest stated period of time the number of bottles of Harvey's 1971 Chateau de L'Abbaye Skinner that has been sold by the Refreshment Department; and what is the cost per bottle or case thereof.

Dr. Reginald Bennett

I have been asked to reply.

All 500 bottles of this wine have been sold in the six months it has been stocked. The cost to Members was £2.24. The Catering Sub-Committee does not think it appropriate to disclose its costs.
