Another 19th century resurrected style by the Rare Wine Co., made by Beirbeto in Madeira. True to its Rainwater style, can pair w any cheese or nut. Outstanding historical drink. #Strawhat — 10 years ago

Tangy salinity and dried orange peel, the acidity suppresses most of the sweetness. A real treat. — 11 years ago

Easy drinking post lunch wine. Just sweet enough, but Not as heavy as a port so more dangerous! 1999 vintage — 10 years ago

Very beautiful aroma here with tons of tawny like nuttiness coming through, flowerlike sweetness and perhaps a bit of loamy earth. On the palate, the wine goes nuts - literally - with a spicy (almost like chili peppers) nutty mix, finishing with sweetness and heat. Fun wine.  — 10 years ago

Very focused. Lemon peel, sweaty citrus, and violet on the nose followed up by tangerine, toffee, and sea salt. Very long and incredibly well made. — 10 years ago

Hands down winner from today's #Elevenses @Christie's Wine. Bottled in the 70s, recorked in 2011. Sercial, so you know the acidity is in full effect, but the wine is really harmonious and balanced. It's not as "offbeat" as some other older Madeiras I've had, and honestly would be straightforward to pair with food...roast chicken, for one. — 10 years ago
