1922 D'Oliveira Boal Madeira Reserva

Bid on this bottle of 1922 D'Oliveira Boal Madeira Reserva (96JG, 93WS). John Gilman: "The 1922 Boal from d’Oliveira was bottled in 1999 and is an absolutely fabulous glass of Madeira. The brilliant nose soars from the glass in a refined and powerful blend of baked peaches, fresh figs, Cuban cigars, savory elements of fresh rosemary and celery seed, a nice touch of caramelized banana, sweet nutty tones and a bit of bergamot. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bdoied, complex and absolutely bottomless at the core, with brisk acids, laser-like focus, seamless balance and simply stunning length and grip on the complex and hauntingly profound finish. A great, great wine." (01/2014)
