Henriques & Henriques - Founders Solera Madeira NV Seyssel and a little smoke thisMade of Malvasia and one of the all time greats. Green tinged mahogany; ethereal bouquet; beautifully lifted and singing from the glass, with tremendous inner mouth energy, suggesting immortality. Butterscotch, and the slight suggestion of molasses, dark chocolate and toffee richness, with acidity ascendant to yield a toffee apple finish. Sublime by any measure.
