Madeira Malvasia

This is going into full-fledged cold-brew territory, color-wise (aka translucent but brownnnnnnn just barely going into amber and water-white at the rim). It’s pungent with nail polish interlaced with hazelnut vibes on the nose. The palate brings on so much tropicals and florals to the iced coffee cocktail hour. Along with medium-grain tannins and not-burning-but-burn-esque alcohol yielding orange rind romance. Absolutely beautiful and just giving a LOT, so sip slowly. This bottle lasts, or at least it can. If you have the discipline (I thought I would, and enjoyed a part solo then killed the rest with a date as one does).
