How times change. 15 years ago I'd not have given 5 year tinta negra blends a second glance. This does what it says on the bottle--it is full and rich. Crème brûlée, butterscotch, almonds, vanilla, and healthy acidity. Only lacking that final layer of complexity that great aged madeira can contain. Stunning QPR for madeira. — 7 years ago

Medium sweet. Can sense some sercial nuttiness and back palate had malmsey like sweet. — 9 years ago

I am not sure if it is 50yo, but it was delicious and definitely had some bottle age. I am trying to find out how old this is. — 7 years ago

Quite the experience. Took some time to open in the glass. Complex nose of caramel, nuts and the underlying spirit. Medium+ palate, with prevalent nuttiness and still high acidity. Very long finish. — 8 years ago

Wow. Just wow. A near perfect combination of aged tawny port and Bual/Malmsey-style Madeira in this wine, albeit with more acidity. Amazing stuff! — 9 years ago

Leacocks Malmsey “Solera” Madeira 1863: bright and beautiful for a wine of 152 years (!); delicate body, with surprisingly flavorful notes of toffee and almonds; taste was only semi-sweet, not fully so; crisp, salty acidity; wonderfully enduring finish, like a Kraft Caramel sprung from a time machine — 8 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.  — 9 years ago

Not dissimilar to a youngish Malmsey Madeira: rich, balanced sweetness, jammy dried fruits, and deep, lasting spices. — 9 years ago
