Dark amber. Treacle, toffee, and tangelo on the inviting nose and full, rich palate. "Rich" meaning "sweet," of course, but well balanced with medium, citrusy acidity. Naturally, a lengthy finish. You got cheese? Nuts? Dried fruit? Here's your fourth for dessert. Drink now through whenever. — 3 months ago

Allspice, molasses, browning, nutmeg, salty air, tide pool. Very pretty acids and tannic bite. Some campfire smoke — a year ago

Smoke and musty old book nose. Very smooth. Syrupy texture. Quite sweet, but with a nice spicy bite on the finish. — a year ago

Another bottle I forgot to get a picture of in situ. Made from Tinta Negra in canteiro. A caramel glaze about to burned brown color, veering into golden brown at the rim. Utterly mouthwatering (and I should say nose quivering) aromas of caramel, brown sugar, sugarcane, molasses, coffee, and dark chocolate, plus a hint of earth and smoke. It is sweet, oh yes, it is, but the acid is bracing. The palate confirms the nose with the addition of caramelized grapefruit, figs, dates and cocoa. Geez Louise, it’s good. Almost cola on the finish. — 2 years ago

A rich gold in colour. Not much experience with Madeira. Like a hypothetical cross between a Sherry (oxidative) and Port (rich). Walnutty notes very savoury with dried fruit notes. — 3 years ago
