    1980 Madeira – di Savorgnana, Podere del Sole (Madeira, Portugal)

    A rare, fully mature vintage Madeira bottled for di Savorgnana / Podere del Sole, showing the island’s hallmark tension between luscious sweetness and tangy, sea-breeze freshness. Deep amber–mahogany with a burnished rim. The nose is gloriously complex: orange marmalade and candied peel, Medjool date and fig, toasted almond and walnut, caramel/treacle and brûlée crust, with classic rancio tones of varnished oak, iodine and salt toffee.

    Silky yet electric on the palate. Layers of candied citrus, raisin and toffee are cut by rapier acidity; notes of walnut brittle, coffee bean and baking spice build toward an endless, mouth-watering finish of salted caramel, orange zest and roasted nuts. Complete, vibrant and wonderfully digestible—textbook mature Madeira.

    Serve: Cool cellar temperature 12–14 °C in a small white-wine or tulip Port glass. No decant needed.
    Food pairing: Pastéis de nata, almond tart, walnut cake; blue cheeses (Stilton/Roquefort) or aged cheddar; superb solo as a contemplative digestif.
    Drink window: Perfect now and essentially immortal under cork thanks to natural fortification and acidity.
