TN: 1808 Leacock Malmsey Solera Madeira

Post by Steve Shapiro »

Very dark amber with slightly green edge. Slightly alcoholic nose, but with terrific licorice, toffee and burnt sugar depth. Moderately sweet malvasia with expected caramel, molasses and nut flavors, plus some milk chocolate to add complexity. Long finish. 18+/19. Others present had other MWA 1808 malmsey solera bottlings that they thought were deeper. This works just fine for me. 18.5/20 (10/09)
