Cossart Gordon Bual Vintage 1978 Madeira Wine

Cossart Gordon Bual 1978 Vintage Madeira is an exceptional wine from one of Madeira’s sunniest regions, Calheta, where the Bual grape develops its rich character. Hand-harvested and traditionally foot-trodden in 1978, it was then matured for more than 40 years in old oak casks using the classic Canteiro method. With only 1,294 bottles produced, this rare release represents both heritage and craftsmanship at their finest.

In the glass, Cossart Gordon Bual 1978 Vintage Madeira shows a bright mahogany colour with golden-green highlights. Aromas of spice, tobacco, cedar, and balsamic notes lead into a palate that is medium-sweet yet vibrant, perfectly balancing richness with fresh acidity. Long, elegant, and complex, this vintage Madeira has been acclaimed by international critics, scoring 95 points from Wine Enthusiast and 94 from Wine Spectator. A collector’s treasure and a remarkable wine for special occasions.

<p>Justino's Single Harvest 2000 Madeira Wine presents an amber to cashew hue, clear and bright, typical of prolonged aging in wood. Its aromatic profile is complex and rich, marked by intense notes of dried fruits such as nuts and almonds, nuances of spices, roasted caramel, and slight hints of exotic wood and smoke. On the palate, it stands out for the balance between its natural sweetness and a vibrant, refreshing acidity, a structural feature of the wines from this region. It has a smooth texture and a long, persistent, and dry finish.<br /><br />Unlike still wines, Madeira wines of this style have high stability due to their manufacturing and maturation process. Once opened, the bottle maintains its organoleptic properties for several months, as long as it is stored in a cool place and away from direct light. It should be served slightly chilled, ideally between 13°C and 15°C. Madeira wine is known for its unique and distinctive character, and Justino's Single Harvest 2000 exemplifies these qualities, offering a nuanced and memorable tasting experience. This wine is not only a delight to drink, but it also serves as a testament to the rich winemaking tradition of the Madeira region.</p>

<p></p><p>The founders of D’Oliveiras were visionaries that saw the true value of Madeira Wine: its ability to improve over time. Therefore they started storing as much Madeira Wine as possible, letting it slowly mature inside the barrels for future generations to be able to enjoy it further. For that reason, D’Oliveiras is the only Madeira Wine company that owns Madeira Wine bottles and Barrels from as far as the 1850’s that can still be commercially purchased.</p>
