(76 g/l RS, 6.73 g/l TA) This was a sweeter aroma than the 2008 Sercial, with lemon, candied orange peel, and a hint of brown sugar. This is a really easy drinker with less assertive acidity than the Sercial, and less than most Madeiras overall. It seems sweeter than most as well, with the lower acidity likely contributing to that perception. The body started light, but improved with time. Not overly complex, but I liked this one a fair bit. 92+ points.
