My Madeiras:

250-500 bottles

Frasqueira (Soleras counted as values, H&H Reservas, Leacock Velho Verdelho and the likes not included in average since no Vintage is defined):

1890,33 (no weighting, each bottle counts as 1)
1843,3 (value-weighted average)

1 bottle, mostly empty, but still going strong.

RWC NYC Malmsey, so non-vintage.

I'm such a Madeira geek that I did this all by hand. Seeing what wines I had, calculating age and then the average.
169 bottles of vintage and solera.
68 bottles of nonvintage.
Average vintage of vintage and solera wines 1922.
Not counting some bottles not delivered yet.
