I’m note sure what I just had...smelled a bit like Madeira. Tastes nothing like it. Dates & figs all day long. Lots of acid keep this from being cloying but make no mistake, it’s a sticky one. Awesome in small doses. Diabetic in large doses.

What a Friday group tasting put on by Dan! Killer wines. 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 5 reds, 1 dessert. All blind.
Think this is the oldest bottle I’ve had to date. My guess here was Madeira. The finish was incredibly maple-driven. Caramel, sticky-sweetness with some acidity still hanging around to provide structure. Great dessert wine!
