(Vasconcelos Family) Lots of heat - then sweet later, burnt rubber and sugar cane. Not great balance in the palate. Again, notes of sugar cane and rum. Not my style. Nose - 4/6, Palate - 3/6, Finish - 3/6, Je Ne Sais Quoi - 0/2 = 10/20. (C)

Barbeito Madeiras: The 65th Anniversary Celebration (The Modern, NYC): Sourced from the Vasconcelos family. A luscious, savory wine; sweet and brothy with a solid spine which frames the richness. Some Christmas spices on the finish. Intense and lengthy.
