Bual--1827
1 dozen bottles per lot
Bual--1827 Madeira, Quinta de Serrado Levels: nine into neck, three bottom neck; hand painted front labels, cracked wax capsules with faded Quinta de Serrado crest stamp "Straight vintage, in cask for 108 years, then in demijohn and finally bottled in 1988. From an Henriques family estate in Câmara de Lobos (understood to be Antonio Eduardo Henriques), in 1990. I first noted it at the pre-sale tasting and have tasted it six times since. Part of a very large stock, including the 1830 Malmsey sold by Christie's over two years. A fabulous wine, with all the great, old-vintage attributes, concentration yet finesse, length, fragrance. Most recently, very rich amber; sweet, mouth tantalising, very high acidity. Superb. Last noted at Maliner's great madeira tasting, March 1995 *****. MB, Vintage wine 1 dozen bottles per lot
