Cunha, Malvasia Velha 1870
Bottled in 2016 by FMA. New wax capsules with 'A Madeira' seal. New stencilling
Levels into neck

High-toned nose, spirity, straw, slightly raisiny. Very mature appearing. Brier tone. Quite punchy on the nose. With some air, the spirity acetone tone vanished slowly, giving way to concentrated subdued sweet dried peaches aromas, vintage furniture wax, vanilla, and honey cake. Long cask-aged style. Sweet start with high acidity, raisins, waxy, and intense. On the side, a warm spirity tone ending with some natural bitters and orange zest. Intense concentrated wine with a bite. Powerful. On the aftertaste, sweeter and more balanced, in concentrated orange fruit style.
Last tasted February 2016
