TN: 1978 Barbeito Vintage Verdelho Madeira
Posted: Tue Sep 01, 2009 9:33 am
Barbeito Verdelho 1978 smelled of shit. Literally. It didn't have any of the brightness of the 1981 and the 20 YO that were served beside it. I was certain the bottle was flawed, but as we didn't have a spare we couldn't check. Also, all the other participants found it ok. The taste was flat and lifeless and I was still sure it had something wrong with it.
