However, Torregas Wineries also bottled Madeiras under its own label, very rarely.

Alain Faget Bas armagnac

The *1918 Alain Faget Bas Armagnac* is a remarkable spirit from the heart of Gascony, distilled over a century ago at the very end of the First World War. Crafted from the finest local grapes and distilled in traditional copper alembics, this Bas Armagnac has spent decades maturing slowly in oak casks, developing a depth, elegance, and complexity that only such extended ageing can achieve. Bottles from this era are exceedingly rare, making this an extraordinary find for collectors of historic spirits.

In the glass, it shows a deep amber-mahogany hue with golden reflections, a testament to its long interaction with seasoned oak. …

Barsac, Premier Cru Classe

1947 Chateau Coutet tasting note from Cellar Tracker. "If the nose on the 1947 Coutet is promising, then the palate over-delivers with the most fresh rough cut Seville orange marmalade, macadamia, toffee, cooked shiitake, Marsala, and unsmoked cigar. This isn’t the biggest, but I love its combination of fresh and savory, of young and old, of lush and svelte." Tasted 2022 - 96 Points

Château Coutet is a historic wine estate located in Barsac, Bordeaux, known for producing exceptional sweet wines. Established in the 13th century and classified as a Premier Cru Classé in 1855, it is one of the oldest and most esteemed vineyards in the Sauternes and Barsac regions. …

MBV - Boal - Bottled by Barbeito

This is a rare and very limited release of the 1912 Madeira from the family cellars. The bottles are in perfect condition. There is something ethereal about tasting such a rare vintage. The 1912 Boal is very dry as one would expect from this style of Madeira. There is a huge amount happening on the complexity front with some bitter nut skin notes with dried flowers and citrus pith. Although quite dry, this does not come across as too severe. An electric wine that is astonishingly refreshing. Massive finish that goes on and on.

Bual, Madeira

Madeira Bual is typically sweeter than Madeira Sercial or Madeira Verdelho, but not quite as intensely sweet as Malmsey. You should expect a light mahogany/copper coloured wine with aromas of maple syrup, roasted walnut notes and hints of coffee. On the palate its high acidity will create a much needed balance against the sweetness making the sugar barely noticeable. Flavours of figs, vanilla and caramel should dominate the palate and the wine should finish off long with caramelised citrus notes.

Boal, Madeira

*** 94 Points Robert Parker ***

"The 1908 Boal Reserva from D’Oliveiras is an unctuous, full-bodied wine loaded with dark maple syrup, tar, leather, licorice and sweet baking spices. There is superb density here and the wine shows terrific length in an intense style. The finish is long, bright and sweet." The Wine Advocate

Madeira is made on the volcanic island of the same name, situated in the Atlantic ocean some 400 miles off the North African coast. This sub-tropical island was discovered in 1419 by the Portuguese. Madeira is the Portuguese word for wood or timber.

This sweet, amber-tinged Madeira, has keen acidity and a long and mellow finish, with a certain delicacy. …

Vintage Port Costa do Castedo Jose Duarte D'Oliveira (Bottled 1905), DOC Douro

The *1901 Quinta do Sibio* Vintage Port from Costa do Castedo, bottled in 1905 by José Duarte D’Oliveira, is a truly historic and exceptionally rare wine—over 120 years in the making. Produced from hand-harvested grapes grown on the steep schist terraces of the Douro, this Port reflects a time when winemaking was entirely manual, and each bottle was crafted with care for long-term cellaring. Surviving bottles from this period are exceedingly scarce, making it a treasure for serious collectors and connoisseurs of antique wines.

In the glass, it shows a deep tawny-brown core with olive-green highlights at the rim—a classic hallmark of great age in Port. …

Colheita Port, DOC Douro

Reviews
"This brings back a fond memory of a long lost friend, Paul Napolitano from NY. He once opened this identical Port for me years ago at his home and at the time, it was the finest Colheita I had experienced, as well as the oldest. This one was bottled in 1976 or 1977. A piece is torn off the label and makes it impossible to be certain. Dark coffee color with a greenish edge. Is this Madeira? A nose of bouillon cube, scents of sea breeze and toffee, reminiscent of a Malvasia and the richness and supple spine live up to that mindset. The palate is packed with copious caramel and fig flavors along with prunes and toffee intricately woven into a neat little package. …

La Reserve College Cellars Vintage Port, DOC Douro

The 1871 La Réserve College Cellars Vintage Port is an almost mythical bottle, representing more than 150 years of Douro winemaking history. Crafted just six years after the end of the American Civil War and during the reign of Queen Victoria, this wine comes from an era when Port was made entirely by hand—grapes foot-trodden in granite lagares and transported downriver by rabelo boats. Surviving examples of any 19th-century Vintage Port are rare; a bottle from 1871 in collectible condition is a true treasure, offering a direct, liquid connection to the Douro’s golden age.

In the glass, a Port of this age would likely display a deep mahogany-brown core shading to amber and green at the rim, a classic indicator of extreme maturity. …

Amontillado Viejisimo, Domecq

The House of Domecq has spent almost three centuries pleasing sherry-drinkers of every stripe, including the royalty of Spain and England. They have also grown, eventually becoming part of the enormous corporate tapestry that is Allied Domecq, which owns a diverse range of wine and spirit producers.

This Amontillado captures vestigial freshness from the flor yeast, which has been allowed to die, in return adding colour, texture and complex malty hazelnut flavours to an unnervingly complex ensemble.
