  November 29, 2023 - Gorgeous amber colour with an oxidative, slightly cheesy nose. The palate has lots of flavour, sultanas, orange peel, Indian spices, medium sweet and a gentle warmth on the mid palate and a long finish. This is a great wine at £16 and easy to enjoy on its own or with cheese, chocolate and nuts.

  April 23, 2021 - This lighter, drier style of Madeira is very drinkable. Cooked/raisin fruit, but still fresh with a very slight saline finish. Slightly chilled makes a great aperitif or digestive.

  Dried fruit, floral, caramel, ripe fruit.
  Full bodied, good acidity, very long, great consentration, Almost juicy, and finishes with some sweetness.
  Complex, very good length and acidity. Very food friendly!

  April 27, 2018 - A private lunch (Restaurant Frantzén ***, Stockholm, Sweden): Intense yet elegant, medium dry, caramelly and nutty, citrus and peach, touch of warmth from the five years on oak, gentle but fresh acidity, harmonious, subtle bitters, slightly tight finish, very good length.
