João Romão Teixeira, Terrantez Campanário 1870
Re-corked in 1978 and in 2015 by O.P. Brothers. One Burgundy and one Bordeaux shaped bottle. New wax capsules. Levels: one 3cms below base of cork and one into neck.
Tasting note: Deep amber color. Intense nose of balsamic aromas, honey cake, old furniture wax, rose petals, orange peel and sugared dates. Intriguing, a classic long cask aged nose of a high quality Madeira. Full elegantly sweet start of taste, lifted acidity, fine grapefruit bitters, dried orange aromas, all well balanced leading to a long slightly sweet finish. Love the natural concentration and fine acidity. A very good Madeira with lingering after taste. June 2015. Later that year at the pre-sale byob dinner in NY one of the highlights of the evening. Sweet well balanced with fresh acidity. A great Terrantez. Last tasted Dec 15. E.V.
