Very Old Madeira Wines

Old Madeira Wine

Madeira wines have the ability to age longer than any other wines in the world.

With wines as old as 185 years on the table, ODT’s Charmian Smith tells us of the surreal experience that is “drinking a wine made the year Beethoven died, before Queen Victoria came to the throne, and before the Treaty of Waitangi…”

When in Madeira, we recommend Blandy’s Madeira Wine Lodge for great Madeira Wine tastings.

Transavia new cabin seats

Transavia new e-leather Seats

Transavia cabins are being refitted – new seat covers in green E-Leather are now replacing the old fabric covers on the company’s airplanes.

As for us, we’re very happy with the news – the cabins look fresher and more inviting than ever – and look forward to trying the new seats first hand.

So, if you’re flying Transavia to Madeira, and you’re lucky enough to find these new interiors on your plane – please drop us a line and share your opinions.

Madeira landscape photography – Among the best

Madeira Photo Tour - Terraced Agriculture

Top landscape photographer and a dear friend, Simon Zino had one of his photos included in the “30 Spectacular Examples of Terraced Agriculture”, a selection of the finest photographies on the subject of man made cultivated terraces.

Put together by Matador Network, the selection focuses mainly on Asia (China, Japan, the Philippines…) and Peru. Madeira is the only place in Europe to be featured.

If you’re looking for great photo opportunities in Madeira, join our Photo Raid.

Designed by experienced photographers (and Simon was one of them) but aimed at photographers of all levels, our Photo Raid takes you to different, almost secret locations off the beaten track to offer you the best chances for great photography.

The british envy of Madeira’s weather – a new high

Madeira Weather

It’s the silly season, of course. And the Tom Heap has gone mad with… optimism.

Claiming that, at the current rate, climate change will soon fortune Britain with the warm temperatures and mild winters of Madeira’s weather, the Costing the Earth host has led a lot of gardeners and sofa travellers to scream: Let’s make it happen!

Truth is – it’s not going to.

So if you really wish to enjoy Madeira’s all year subtropical mild weather (and understand why Tom got carried away), you really, really have to come by and experience it first hand.

Madeira Wine: Blandy’s 10 year aged malmsey

Malmsey Madeira Wine Blandy

“It might last a few months after you open it, but not in my house.”

This is how Patrick Haddock of the Wining Pom sums up his appreciation of Blandy’s 10 year aged malmsey Madeira wine.

We couldn’t agree more.

Having the peaks for breakfast

Madeira: The Peaks with Quinta do Furão 1

Hotel Quinta do Furão has offered a very special treat to some of his most adventurous guests – breakfast served at sunrise in Pico Ruivo – the highest peak in Madeira Island.

At 5 a.m., the adventure started with a Safari Jeep Trip from Quinta do Furão to Achada do Teixeira. From there, the group hiked up to the top of Pico Ruivo – a charming moonlight walk of about 35 minutes.

At the top, Quinta do Furão guests’ had the chance to contemplate the stunning sunrise over a splendid “sea of clouds” – and then have breakfast served in this breathtaking setting.
