  Nutty nose with figs on the palate. Very complex savoury in the mouth.

  Incredibly young and fresh for its age. Lovely nose of nuts, dates and figs with a golden honey background. Complex mouth coating palate with a medium length. Incredible stuff.

  Bottled March 2010. From memory several weeks ago: Amber in color. lots of freshness left with dried citrus rinds, fresh caramel, almonds. I thought the acidity was bright enough to balance the level of sweetness. I can see the seaside element that ANDREWSGHALL points out. Fantastic bottle with a lot of interest.

  Madeira @ The Modern: Homage to Mario Barbeito (NYC): Bottled in 2000. Probably sourced from vineyards in the North coast (Seixal or Ribeira da Janela). This wine was purchased by Barbeito around 1944-1946, just before the company's founding. Medium amber with a slight greenish rim. Oily texture on entry, but good cleansing sensation on the finish. Medium acidity with brownish flavors of caramel and nuts. Medium sweetness with a medium to medium-short finish. Quite good, but my preference would be for a bit more bite.

  A bit of nosh at The Burgundy Room w/ Phil and Brian (Columbus, OH): Intense - smacks you with seaside notes ( a la island Scotch). Slight must, soft on the acid, softer on the finish as the front fades. Very nice in total though.
