Tasting note: The sweetest style of Madeira, offering fig, coffee and caramel aromas and flavors. There’s noticeable acidity, but also alcohol here, leaving a slight burning sensation on the finish. Try with cheddar, stilton or parmesan cheese and walnuts. Drink now. (Bruce Sanderson, www.winespectator.com, Web Only, 2004) |
