TN: 1862 Borges "HMB" Terrantez Vintage Madeira

Post by Steve Shapiro »

Medium yellow/orange/brown with green edge. Excellent, complex, spicy nose with caramel, with citrus peel and vanilla adding to the appeal. Peach/apricot, mixed nuts, caramel flavors with excellent depth and perfect balancing acidity. Typical slightly bitter finish not at all reducing the score. Long finish. 19/19+. Far better than my previous experience with the 1862 Borges "HMB" Terrantez, probably secondary to being decanted one week prior to the tasting vs. three days for my own bottle. 19/20 (10/09).
