- DOliveiras is one of the greatest of the classic Madeira shippers, and one of the few to survive from the pre-phylloxera era. Founded in 1820 and today housed in cellars that date from 1619, this small jewel of a company is still owned by the same family, its vineyard holdings built up over time through a series of marriages with other wine-producing families. But what is really extraordinary is that DOliveiras has held on to many of its most famous vintages, creating a unique and irreplaceable stock of old wines. Thus, whether an 1862 Sercial or a 1922 Bual, all were produced by the DOliveiras and their ancestors, and generally from their own vineyards in São Martinho.
A perfect aperitif wine with it's clean nose of nuts, wholemeal and green apple characters. The palate is fine and textured with layers of dried tropical fruits and a subtle smokiness.
