Re: What Madeira(s) Have You Purchased Recently?

The man who told me so is working at Barbeitos. I think it is more expensive now because it has recived so much praise everywhere.

Re: What Madeira(s) Have You Purchased Recently?

I paid 160 euros in a wineshop in Funchal, but at Barbeitos you had to pay 245 euros I was told.

Re: The end of an era

Sad news, but after all nice that Luis is taking over, then it is in the best hands. Opened a 1983 Malvasia from ABSL today and raised a glass for Edmundo and Artur. It was always such a pleasure to visit the place!

1988 D'Oliveira's Terrantez Vintage Madeira

Yes I do! It is bottled in 2013, but feels like having more cask time. It has great acidity and the finish is very long with a deep raisin/plum frutiness. Great!

Re: Henriques and Henriques ancient Reservas

I bought the Malvazia reserve at H&H in 2009, then it was 650 euros, and so were the others.
