Bid on this bottle of Leacock ''Solera 1872'' Madeira. John Leacock sailed to Madeira from the United Kingdom (after the death of his father) in 1741 and at the age of 15, became the youngest apprentice at the firm of Madeira merchants (Catanach and Murdoch), and stayed until his contract expired on 11 March 1749. During his apprenticeship, he had been in constant contact with an old school friend, John Patient, residing at that time in Charles Town, South Carolina, who suggested that they themselves should commence trading.
