Info on LEACOCK'S BUAL MADEIRA 1963?

Post by Frederick Blais »

Anyone tasted this ? There is an offer for this in Canada for 159$. I find this pretty cheap for me to experience my first Madeira Vintage.

Thanks

Fred,

Although I won't post my TN here, as it will appear in a future newsletter when I get to the Madeira side of our trip, but I can tell you that I scored it 96 and it was one of the top 10 Madeiras I had on our entire trip and definitely the best young one. Grab as many as you can afford.

BTW, the one I had was bottled in 1994, tasted at the cellar in early Nov. 2005.

Enjoy!

...and this would be available where? Nothing found on the SAQ website...

It is available in Ontario. It was in the Classics catalog. I don't know if there are still some left.
