91pts Wilfred Wong of Wine

The Broadbent 10 Years Old Sercial Madeira is a fascinating fortified wine that surprises the palate with its crisp finish. A delicious wine, with 19% alcohol and high acidity, this is one of the driest styles of fortified wine. It serves up a bounty of warm and enticing aromas—dried earth, tangy mineral, roasted nuts—and fills the palate with an attractive lushness. Pair with Marcona almonds, hard cheeses, and olives. 

90pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Offering up high-toned aromas of dried dates, beeswax furniture polish, cane sugar and dried fruits, the latest release of Broadbent's NV Sercial Ten Year Old is medium to full-bodied, racy and enveloping, with tangy acids, a sweet and fleshy core and a long, penetrating finish. This is a very creditable and keenly priced offering.
