TASTING NOTE: Rich and unctuous, with lots of dates, figs, and prunes as well as a rich, macadamia nuttiness. Full in the mouth, with a long finish. Madeiras are also nigh indestructible, so you can open this for a glass and then keep the bottle on the shelf for much longer than many other wines before losing too much flavor.
