  Ken's 60th Birthday (Smyth and The Loyalist - Chicago IL): Baked fig, caramel, toasted almond and orange peel with broad array of spices. Good+ weight and length. Slightly less sweet than I expected, but perfectly pair with tonight's desserts.

  Delicious finale to a spectacular dinner. Rich and sweet yet nice acid cut keeps it well balanced. Full of exotic spices and dense toffee flavors. Comes across a bit lighter and more elegant then many Madeira’s in this age range.

  Wine, Browns and my 55th Birthday (My Home): Golden/orange in color. The nose is exquisite. I could smell it all night. Coffee, oranges, maple, milk chocolate and orange candies. Complex and layered. Not really sweet, just a perception. Long finish. Flavors of candied orange rind and chocolate. Got better with more air as the night went on. Beautiful wine.

  Well integrated sweetness. Comes across as very round and balanced on the palate. Very nice tangy acidic quality and caramel/toffee old wood flavors but lacks any real distinguishing quality; still, quite good.
