Old Sercial Madeira 1846
Madeira Wine 1846, recorked in 1871, some evaporation, believed between 4 and 5 gallons
"Clear yellow color. Fairly light, this would indicate the wine is not very sweet. High toned nose of fudge, violets, straw, vanilla and vintage furniture wax. Uplifting aromas. Nice complexity. A beautiful intriguing nose of a long cask aged Madeira quite perfumed.
Intense dry start of taste with soft well evolving midplate of citrus fruits and fine lingering finish. Great balance and strength. Very likely this is a Sercial with about 20 years of cask aging before being bottled. The concentrated acidity is clear sign of this. Impressive wine. 18. The salty tone is a sign that the vineyards were near the sea, very likely Jardim do Mar or Camara do Lobos. Might even be from the old Torre Bella estate."-EV
