ABSL - which Frasqueiras are seekworthy
Posted: Fri Aug 18, 2023 1:32 pm
Having a few Barros' Madeiras in my cellar, I confess to have tasted even fewer lately.
I just wonder, since this is a closed operation, anyways (and Oliveiras didn't buy the old stock from ABSL), which are the ones you know and liked?
For me the 1860 were good (M great and B very good), and the 1914 M ("Solera", but I think Frasqueira) excellent with the 1934 M "Faja" being a little tad behind.
On CT I see 1864 Faja (of course M) in existence, also Moscatel from 1890 and Terrantez from 1902, anyone know any of these wines?
