Borges in 1877, stored the wine Terrantez in the same year in 70ltr. Demijohns. This wine was bottled in May 2013. This rare vintage Madeira was especially selected for sale at Christie's"
Tasting note: Nice tangy nose with leather, beeswax and floral aroma's. After a while more open and expressive with fine aniseed and fennel tones. Intense rich start leading to a more tight finish. Tasted January 2013 E.V.
