old wine

[Innkeeper]

Hi Tkcmm, and welcome to the Wine Board. One of my favorite expressions is never say never. This is particularly true when it comes to Madeira. Know of people who have pursued even older Madeiras than this one. Of course the big question is, how was it stored? If it seems to have been stored OK, and if the bottle is in reasonably decent shape, you may have something. Your best bet is to find an individual collector. Go to a search engine or to www.wineanswers.com and search for "Madeira collector(s)." Have already checked out this site for you with negative results. Good luck.
