LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

“

Rich history in a glass. The balance of searing acid and deep, cooked sweetness is something only Madeira can achieve.

The Library Note

The Blandy family is the only one of the original founders of the Madeira wine trade to still own and manage their own company. Madeira wine was historically heated in the holds of ships crossing the equator; today, this 'estufagem' process is replicated in heated attics, giving the wine notes of cooked fruit and caramel that last for centuries.

Sommelier's Perspective

THE NOSE

Intense bouquet of dried fruits, toffee, and spice.

THE PALATE

Luscious and sweet. Fig jam, roasted nuts, molasses, and coffee.

THE FINISH

Bright acidity cuts through the sweetness, leaving a fresh finish.

Sensory Profile

THE PERFECT SERVE

Cool room temperature. It is the perfect dessert wine, especially with fruit tarts or hard cheeses.
