Note on the provenance
One of the most historic Quintas on the island of Madeira, the Quinta da Achada, has long been associated with Madeira wine. In the 18th Century it belonged to the firm Lamar Hill, Bisset & Co, who sold Madeira wine, and then passed to another Madeira wine merchant, William Penfold. Later, in 1807-8, it was the summer residence of General Beresford, Governor of the island and Commander of the British forces there during the Napoleonic wars.
