Community Tasting Note

Thursday, March 7, 2013 - I've been sitting on a bottle of this for 6 years, and I figured the 10th anniversary of my inaugural tasting note on CellarTracker was the perfect time to crack this baby and steal a couple of ounces.

Wow, wow, wow! I've had this a couple of times, and it was stunning before. This bottle though is on a whole different level. Deep and brothy on the nose with that funky, beefy, caramelized onion thing I find in Madeira. The palate though, oh the palate. So thick and intense, rich, caramel and beef and onion, but then there is this explosion of lime and salt and acid. It's stunning for a wine to carry such richness and length while still showing such unreal acidity. I really need to drink more Madeira, as it is so uniquely fresh and intense.

I really look forward to following this bottle for a long time to come.
