4/19/2024 - Oysteih Likes this wine: 92 points

Light golden color. Medium + intensity nose with aromas of citrus, pear, white flowers, musk, iberico ham, and a clean minerality. Palate is great, dry, with notes of citrus, canned peaches, mandarin, wet stones and sea spray, it has a focused clear direction, great medium++ acid level, med - body, light almost weightless midpalate and a very long sharp finish with big energy.

Very subtle nose, almost no fruit, difficult to describe. Maybe some starfruit. Extremely salty, which is great. Good acidity too. Quite unique.

This is pretty good. Some rancio and caramel. Moderately sweet, maybe a bit moreso that I would expect for a Verdelho. Missing the sharp acidic tang I want in madeira. Bottled in December 2019 as per lot # on the back label.

March 2024. Open for about 10 weeks now with a few inches of airspace and it is shining. Walnut skin, lemon peel, dark Hokkaido brown sugar but less bruisingly dense than it was at first open. The flavors wash across the palate and the complexity defies description. There are sweet spices here too - star anise, allspice and nutmeg. Light coffee too. There is a unique smokiness here as well. Still very tight and acidic on the finish. One of the greatest Madeiras of the early 20th century. I could probably drink half this bottle on my own. I have heard the earlier bottlings are even better and I have a few to try someday.

Enjoyed. Fresh and light. Not too sweet. Easy to drink. Not a seasoned drinker of white wines, so limited nuance. Would repurchase.

Sad to say I don’t believe I’ve ever had a wine from Queensland. Dry for the grape and definitely has some textural components - lively minerals, sweet stones and a sliver of bitterness to finish. Refreshing.

Pretty nose with brown sugar, almonds, cinnamon, and a bit of orange peel. Palate is slightly sweet, full bodied, well balanced with acidity and a hint of bitterness. Very long finish with sweetness, acidity, and a lovely energy. Really quite nice. Has been my favorite of the rare wine historic series.

A monster tasting at Laszlo's: Blind. Floral, tropical, fruit salad and mango. Bright palate, plenty of sweetness to it. Pretty drinkable for what it ends up being.

1/26/2024 - Gargantua Likes this wine: NR

As is often the case, a darker robe than expected--appears somewhere between green flecked but mostly yellow and golden. Reductive at first, but that slowly blows off to reveal a very racy, very saline wine that honestly is tough not to compare to Chablis. Really reminds me of machine-harvested (aka. slightly sub-optimal ripeness), all stainless steel Chablis. Lots of puckering lemon-y acidity, and a bit of sourdough bread rind in there as well. I suspect these should age a year or two and then they'd be fab upon opening. These wines are stellar with raw fish. Which isn't the least bit surprising, as the wine's aromas quickly bring to mind oyster liquor.

Well balanced, with a slight reduction, light but toasty oak, and a citrus undertone.

Opens over time and punches above its weight at the asking price ($16)

Excellent value here, this was 295 ZAR in Cape Town and punches way above its price point.

A blend of Verdelho, Chenin, Palomino, Albarino, and Fernao Pires.

Ripe red apples, lemon, stone fruit, and honey. Despite this, there's plenty of acidity and a rich, biscuity mid-palate which I assume is from time on lees. Rounded out with some creamy vanilla complexity.

1/15/2024 - NateR Likes this wine: 90 points

Toasted salty Brazil nuts on the nose, along with a moderate rancio note. That all comes through on the palate as well, along with a subtle but distinct smoky burnt char note. Some sugary sweetness arises in the midpalate then lingers in the finish. From a bottle that had been open ~1 month.

I'm somewhat new to Madeira so my basis of comparison is limited. That said, I found this to be a gorgeous bottle. Smokey and deep, light brown in color. I wasn't sure what to expect but I loved it. Drank over a few days and it was solid all the way through.
