I love Madeira! I got to smell a 175 year old madeira once; it was awesome. My favorite label is Rainwater madeira. Actually, it's my favorite beverage with a smoke.

You got to step up to a 5 or 10 year Madeira! Broadbent 5 or 10 are best buy's, as is Blandy's Alvada.

I have had Madeira back to 1795 Terrantez, and I know what you mean by the smell; just divine!

I'm in N. Weymouth, where would you recommend I find some? Blanchards?

Atlas, Kappy's, or Blanchards would be good start. Both Madeiras are quite popular for their price ranges.

Don't forget Broadbent or NY Rare Wine Co.
