Wonderfully oxidized Madeira. Caramel but not too sweet. Went with fois gras and avocado ... nice fit. Long linger. 5 years. — a year ago

Burnt toffee, molasses, that nutty, lemony dry nose and round palette. Happy to report, this may linger for the rest of the evening. — 3 years ago

8.9

Raisins, candied carrots, fruitcake, oddly kerosene-sweet with a plethora of cooking herb scents and leather. Viscous and heavy mouthfeel buoyed by a citrus basket of orange peel, candied lemon peel, tangerine and lime, with cola, leather, bitter almond, cinnamon, ginger, and sarsaparilla. #henriquesandhenriques #madeira #Boal #portuguesewine #vinho — 3 years ago

Coppery golden brown; caramel dried citrus zest, dried figs, raisins, toasted nuts; palate reminiscent of toasted hazelnuts, cigars, old leather and bright citrus. Medium acidic backbone carries the wine. M+ length. Beautiful with 70% dark chocolate brownie after a Thanksgiving dinner. — 8 months ago

NV Made of a blend of 10 years old Verdelho and Boal with Tinta Negra that was 70 and 80 years in barrel. Medium dry. I do like the awesome balance of this madeira. Nice befor dinner but certainly good with cheese. — 2 years ago

The 1870 Boal from Joao Romao Teixeira was a contender for wine of the night. Brown with amber rim. Almonds on the nose. Unsurprising then that marzipan is on the palate with spices, licorice and nutmeg. Great freshness and a touch of menthol and more acidity than the other wines in the lineup. Just stunning. Andrew Jones of the Food & Wine Society did a great job bagging this from Christie's back in the day. — 3 years ago
