Leacocks Malmsey “Solera” Madeira 1863: bright and beautiful for a wine of 152 years (!); delicate body, with surprisingly flavorful notes of toffee and almonds; taste was only semi-sweet, not fully so; crisp, salty acidity; wonderfully enduring finish, like a Kraft Caramel sprung from a time machine
