Broadbent’s non-vintage Rainwater Madeira is designed to taste identical year in and year out. TASTING NOTE: Clear dark reddish-copper in color, it breathes classic and very appealing Madeira scents of dried dates and figs and mixed nuts. Smooth and gently sweet, it’s not a sticky” dessert wine but shows good fresh-fruit sweetness built on Madeira’s sturdy core of tart, lemony acidity.
