Description

The island of Madeira today is almost synonymous with the rich, semi-oxidative style of fortified wine to which it gives its name; once the toast of the world, famously used to herald the Declaration of Independence, its status declined amid the phylloxera plague and Prohibition, before its recent rediscovery as one of the world’s greatest wine styles. Perhaps no single other producer is best place to give a taste of this turbulent history than D’Oliveras, whose stocks of wine date back to 1850 – hence its frequent appearance on lists of the oldest wines on general sale. This bottle, produced by the ‘estufagem’ process in which casks are heated to mimic the conditions on transatlantic voyages that gave rise to the distinctive maderised style, is made predominantly from the local speciality of the Tinta Negra Mole grape, blended with a small amount of Boal for added complexity.

Tasting Notes

It is noticeably fresher and less lusciously sweet than other Madeira wines, with aromas of apricot, mahogany, raisin and vanilla. Traditionally served with walnuts as an aperitif, the balanced nature of this wine means it can be served alongside a variety of main courses, and is a revelation with game.
