Comes in a D'oliveira wooden box
Madeira is a fortified wine like port -- alcohol is added to stop fermentation.
A little glass goes a long way, and once opened the bottle can be kept indefinitely, as the wine is already oxidized during the vinification.
D’Oliveira is one of the greatest of the classic Madeira shippers. Founded in 1820 it is still family owned
The vineyards iare located in São Martinho in Madeira, lying just to the west of Funchal along the island’s south coast.
These wines have very powerful aromatics, great lushness and viscosity, incredible structure, and a tangy character that is essential to the finest wines of the 18th and 19th centuries.
D’Oliveira believes that Madeiras age best in cask. Consequently, all of its vintages are kept in wood, and only enough is bottled to meet short-term needs.
