Vino in Chicago; 8/26/2017-9/1/2017: Solid entry-level Madeira from Broadbent. Nose of butter pecan, honey, nougat and orange marmalade. Warm and sweet but fresh and lively. Honey, butter pecan, orange marmalade, nougat, clove. Makes me want to go back to Madeira ASAP. Good stuff for the price.

Nutty with the right level of acidity and residual sugar, notes of citrus oil. Good to pair with peanut butter and chocolate desserts. Consumed over several months without showing variation

well, I like it. Possibly "mundane," this is still way better than any $10 375 ml of Port I've opened. Tastes of toasted lemon almond orange rind, though it does flatten on the finish.

(NV Broadbent Madeira Malmsey Rainwater) Light Madeira flavor; spicy caramel entry; thin, raisin and caramel palate with a bit of licorice; long finish

Ours was over the hill with no character left. Tasted more like tea.

Wizards Tasting (The Mooring): Hmmm, I thought this was tasty stuff. Rich, full, and yummy. I'm happy.
