TN: NV Leacock "A" Madeira

Post by Steve Shapiro »

Light yellow color. Initial nose of light Karo syrup, but with time became more floral with hint of cloves. Alcohol evident on nose, plus enough volatile acidity to be obvious. Medium weight. Mixed fruit and nut flavors with burnt caramel edge; excellent acidity. Not quite enough fruit to cover the alcohol, which I would guess is about 25%. Short finish. 16/20. Mannie believes this is partly distilled aguardente (brandy). (10/09)
