brown orange in color.. warmed candied walnuts with a hint of orange juice on the nose. on the palate thick viscous. sweet but not candy sweet.. the sugar was present but not overwhelming. vanilla, caramel, molasses with a finish of citrus that seemed to almost clean the palate for the next sip.

Raisen, caremel. Good balance. Good for a 10 year and at this price. Was first opened over a year ago and rotated trough this and other Madeira’s. Flavors only improved.

Toffee, caramel, toasted nuts...Not overly sweet, just right. A slight tannic pinch...All the good things you love about a well aged Madeira. This is what sets Madeira apart from port. Lacks the duration to be anything exotic, but its short and lovely.

I've been slowly drinking this bottle (interspersed with other Madeiras) for over 1 year. It keeps getting better. Good depth and finish. Brown in color, caramel and some smokiness. Not nearly as good as 15 year, but a great improvement over 5 years or generic Madeira.
