It will be seen by this return that while the total consumption of
Wine has remained neatly stationary, that of French Wine has
steadily and progressively increased, the year ending sth January,
1838, showing the enormous increase of 62 per cent. over that
ending sth January, 1836; this large increase is chiefly. attribut-
able to Masdeu, as is fully proved by the Custom House reports,
and shows, beyond a doubt, that this Wine is well adapted both to
the palate and constitution of English consumers : it must also be
borne in mind that this increase has taken place notwithstanding
Masdeu has never yet (except to a very small extent) been intrc-
duced in that ripe and matured state which age in bottle can alone
impart, for Masdeu, like all other red winos, requires age, bath in
wend and bottle, to render it perfect and it for the table.
With this view the Proprietors of the Gray's-inn 'Wine Esta-
blishment (enticipating these results from the intrinsic quality of
the Wine) caused 2,500 dozen to be put in bottle in the year 1835,
and have since annually increased their stock, so that they might be
in the same position with this as with the other Wines in which
they deal, and be enabled to keep up a constant supply of matured
and old bottled Wine. It is now in brilliant condition, with a firm
crust; may be moved without the rlic.,,htest injury; and the nobi-
lity and public in general are respectfully invited to pass their judg-
ment on it at the vaults of their Establishment.
The Proprietors regret the necessity of again cautioning the
public and the country wine-merchants against various common
red Wines which have been in many instances surreptitiously im-
posed upon the wine-merchants, aed through them, unknowingly,
upon the public, as the genuine Masdeu. to'which they have no
more affinity than the Pert Wine produced in Figueira has to the
biehest quality of the vineyards of the Alto Douro.
