From the shape and manufacturing style of the bottle, I would say it orginates from the late 1960s or early 1970s.
Why am I posting this note in the Madeira Forum? Because when I got home and had the chance to study the label very closely at varying angles and in different lighting conditions, I could just make out the ghost of the words:
There is also a small neck label, but this just cannot be read. (I'll try and post a picture of the bottle in due course)OLD RESERVE
MADEIRA
BLANDY BROTHERS
Madeira
I don't buy very much Madeira and this is not a particular bottling that I remember seeing discussed on the forum in the past. Is anyone able to tell me what I have bought? I plan to open the bottle this weekend and would like to know what I am going to be drinking.
Thanks,
Alex
