A light brown colour. Flavours of orange, raisins and nuts, and a slightly saline character. Also a slight sweetness. Good depth and a warming finish. I have rarely drunk Madeira, but this seems very good.

Good nutty flavours but not enough cut and acidity for a Sercial. It's just too sweet and there's too much carmel. It reminds me of maple syrup. The Barbeito 10yr old is a much better bet.

Love this grape. Lighter, more acidic, with barely any sweetness making it so different than other Madeiras.

Really good chilled with nuts, brings out saline and nut flavours, and shows how fine this is with well balanced acidity.
