Great introductory example for those who have never had Madeira before, and a nice everyday drinker for those that are already fans. Brown in color, medium bodied and smooth mouthfeel. Aromas and flavors of hazelnuts, raisins, dried apricots and chocolate. Its sweetness is balanced with salivating acidity, and it finishes with raisins, caramel and coffee.

Oak and floral smell. Has a sweet chocolatey texture with an almost Jack Daniels Whisky after taste.

Orange peel. Almonds. A touch of bitter at the end washes away the sugar. Not the best Madeira, but still fun.
