[Madeira @ Patroon (NYC)] A medium honey-brown color, with no lightening on the rim. Sweet molasses and chocolate, with a slighly “brown spice” finish. The first Malvasia tasted at this tasting, and you can feel the step up in sweetness. Totally coats the mouth, and gets to those “hard to reach places” on the palate. ( 91 points )

This is the best madeira I've had (so far). Very rich flavor and sweet, with strong acidity. Thanks for the TN, Marco.
