What Madeira(s) Have You Purchased Recently?

[Glenn E.]

Finally pulled the trigger on my "stock up" purchase. The 1875s are pre-arrival, so this won't ship until early next year.

2 x 1875 D'Oliveiras Malvasia Family Reserve
1 x 1895 D'Oliveiras Malvasia Family Reserve
1 x 1900 D'Oliveiras Malvazia Family Reserve

1 x 1987 D'Oliveiras Bual
1 x 1988 D'Oliveiras Terrantez
1 x 1989 D'Oliveiras Malvasia

1 x NV Barbeito Malvasia 30 Year Old Vo Vera

I added the following to this order (which still hasn't shipped awaiting the arrival of the 1875):

1 x 1908 D'Oliveiras Boal
1 x 1971 D'Oliveiras Terrantez
2 x 1989 D'Oliveiras Malvasia

FWIW, the 1875 Malvasia is no longer listed on RWC's website so they must have sold through everything they'd ordered from the island.

Blandy's 20yo Terrentez

Trying to find their 2000 Verdelho, was really impressed by it

Where are people buying their H and H at?

Glenn,

I'm a bit spoiled due to the people I know!

Picked up a RWC Boston Bual for a really great price; twist my arm. Enjoying it a lot. I like it a lot more than I did years ago. Not sure if the wine has changed or me... Either way I will buy more of this than I had in the past.

Justino’s 1996 Colheita (x3)

A very nice wine and a great value at $40

[Scheiny S]

4x Blandy's Bual 5 year.
It's nothing special but I like it and it's on clearance in PA for $16, which I can afford! Two bottles are for tastings next year, the other two are for me.
Because it keeps after opening, Madeira seems like a wiser purchase on a budget.

Good price. Well done.

Was in Raleigh, NC for work and picked up a bottle 1988 D'Oliveiras Terrantez for $120. Good price for this locale!
