Old Madeira
Madeira
Some evaporation, believed between 4 and 5 gallons, no info on demi john
"Deep orange color with old golden hue. Beautiful open expressive nose of apricots and vintage furniture wax. Quite sweet and concentrated. High alcohol with intense fudge aromas. Though this wine resembles the Old Verdelho #24 its showing more old American wood and smoky tones. Fine soft start quickly evolving and showing concentrated dried apricots and old acidity. This has been in wood for a long time, definitely more 20 years before being bottled. Strong and intense with smoky finish. Could be a Sercial with long cask aging. The concentrated acidity would defend that theory, however a drier style Verdeloho is also likely. All in all a very good wine with strength and lingering after taste."-EV
