UK Madeira lovers note that waitrosewine.com are selling D'Oliveiras Reserva 1977 Terrantez at £40.85 a bottle (including VAT) which is a very reasonable price for this wine which is becoming increasingly scarce.

The product code to enter on their website is 59793. Note that you do have to buy a case of twelve but this can be mixed.

They also have the following D'Oliveiras which may be of interest and the prices look about right:

04083 1968 Boal £55

33650 1966 Verdelho £95

80295 1937 Sercial £135

I'd have no problem filling that case!

The 1968 Bual is the greatest bottling of Madeira produced by any company since 1960 without any question. Grab all you can while they are still relatively inexpensive. They drink like a wine that is 50 years older and blind ... it will fool even Madeira experts.
