  App: Dark golden yellow
  Aroma: Fresh intense moscatel nose with distinct apricot and fig notes
  Full-bodied and rather intense sweetness. Lacking a little acidity, but the overall impression is good.
  Good length
  
  Good value wine

  Thin in texture for a white dessert wine. Nose of figs, grapefruit, and pears. There's a lot of heat in this glass. The alcohol strength is overpowering the fruit. There are hints of prunes and candied fruit. Overall this wie is unbalanced. Too thin, too much alcohol and not enough figs and tropical fruits.

  Very distintictive aroma of smokey tabaco, orange flower and specially dried plums. Not a forgettable wine at all. [Aroma muito evidente de fumo, flor de laranjeira e especialmente, ameixa seca. Não é um vinho para se esquecido]

  100% Moscatel de Setúbal aged over 3 years in small oak cask. Burnt orange color with medium legs. Clean nose, medium + intensity with developing aromas of dried orange blossom, sultana raisins, and candied peach. Sweet, medium acidity, medium + body, medium flavor intensity of dried apricot, canned peaches, raisins, toffee and orange blossom tea. A good quality fortified dessert wine, great quality to price point. About $18 US retail.
