(Joao Romao Teixeira Madeira) Clear medium reddish brown color with clear meniscus; focused sweet coffee, sour milk, German chocolate cake and hazelnut nose with a touch of eart; good acidity, roasted coffee, mocha, lemon, lemon peel palate with a touch of Turkish tobacco; seering acidity on long mocha finish (on Zachy's auction in the '50s, transferred to a glass demijohn and bottled in 1987)

Madeira @ Plumpjack's (San Francisco): A bit reduced, with a good dose of bottle stink. Strong elements of cream-like desserts here: creme brulee, creme caramel, etc. Melted butter and butterscotch. Unusual and unique. A bit lactic. This wine was transferred from cask to demi-johns in 1950 and bottled in 1987.
