Description

This is an incredible rare release of the 1863 Madeira from the “Barbeito Family Collection”. This is one of several vintages coming from Ricardo Freitas’s mother and grandfather’s reserves. MBV Mario (Barbeito Vasconcelos) Boal 1863 Madeira This is named after Ricardo Diogo’s grandfather who founded Barbeito. This 1863 was taken from barrel and put into demijohns, and then put into bottles.

Reviews: "The 1863 Bual has a clear, deep amber color. The nose is perfumed and fragrant with notes of toffee apple, white chocolate, orange blossom, rosewater and a touch of peppermint. It unfurls beautifully in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied and very harmonious. It is just a little withdrawn on the entry, as if drawing you in, then fans out wonderfully with notes of mandarin, nutmeg, cumin and dried apricot; a tang of ginger surfacing right on the finish, which is just a little clipped by age. This is a straight down the line, life-affirming 19th century Bual." Neil Martin Wine Advocate 2012.

Barbeito Madeira is a renowned producer of Madeira wine, which is a fortified wine from the Portuguese island of Madeira. Established in 1946, Barbeito is one of the few independent, family-owned producers of Madeira. Mario Barbeito founded his company in what was a dark time for Madeira with many companies going out of business. He had faith in the future. He also believed—just as Charles Ridpath Blandy, H.M. Borges and João D’Oliveira had done decades earlier—that the value of great Madeira could only go up as it became older, and production of young vintages declined. And so, a former accountant, Barbeito went around the island buying substantial stocks of priceless old vintages from important families. This bottle represents one of those acquisitions
