92pts Wilfred Wong of Wine

Sassy and alluring, the Broadbent 10 Years Old Verdelho Madeira shows that fortified wines are about more than just body and sweetness. This wine, with a mostly dry impression, shows just a bare hint of sweetness. The wine's complex flavors—dried fruit, complex earthiness, and mineral—combined with its tangy and salty finish, pair well with gravlax, lightly smoked cheeses and toasted almonds. 

91pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Broadbent's NV Verdelho 10 Year Old is showing very well, offering up an attractive bouquet of cherries, orange rind, cardamom and honey cake. On the palate, it's full-bodied, satiny textured and enveloping, with ripe but racy acids, a generous core and a nicely defined finish. This is a real success.

Winemaker Notes

Aged in old oak cask in the traditional “Canteiro” system. After maturing, the wine underwent racking, fining and filtering before the blend was assembled and bottled.
