Somewhere between an off-dry oloroso sherry and a dry Madeira, with loads of spiced stewed fruit and toasted walnut on the palate. Drier profile than expected on account of its great acidity and touch of balancing bitter tannin. Exquisite, long, oxidative finish. Paired wonderfully with lemon tumeric pound cake.

Almond, plum, apricot, honey, fig, prune, and chocolate. Savory and stony on the palate. 18.5% abv. Good with seafood, mushroom, poultry, and chocolate.

Pretty great stuff. Like a dry Madeira in many ways. I'd say "alternative" but it's actually way more expensive than an entry level Madeira. Still, awesome stuff and anyone who likes this style has to try this.

17/20 (92/100) Приятный, комплексный аромат с нотами сушеных фиников, инжира, кураги, цукатов, грецкого ореха и бриоши. Умеренная кислотность. Во вкусе инжир и хересный тон. Табак в послевкусии. Отлично! (07.04.2019) #vinnatur2019

Высохшая, просоленная доска, грибы, сухая курага, красная смородина, дикие розы. Сухо, полно и живо.
