No worries, I saw the list if Madeira's being poured. While very nice if you live within driving distance, not really worth flying out there for this one. Lots of younger stuff with a couple of things from the 70's, 60's, and one from the 50's. I don't recall seeing anything older than that. But it's always fun to taste many of these side by side :yumyum:
