TN: 1981 Barbeito Vintage Verdelho Madeira

Post by Otto Nieminen »

Barbeito Verdelho 1981 was lovely, however. It had the cleanest, razor sharp scent of apples, VA, toffee and roasting coffee. The palate was slightly sweet but delightfully acidic and volatile. It is so fresh and refreshing despite its sugar and high alcohol that I could drink this for an appetizer or even with some food during the meal. This is quite a delightful drink.
