Blandy’s Madeira 10 Year Verdelho - NV (750ml)

In recent years, award-winning winemaker, Francisco Albuquerque, and his team have embarked on various R&D initiatives to deepen its comprehension of the intricate Madeira wine aging process. This emphasis stems from dedication to not only grasp the nuances of the numerous variables influencing the wine but also to anticipate and mitigate the impact of climate change on the process.
This new edition 10-year-old range has been crafted using age-old techniques of the past, combined with detailed knowledge on how each varietal evolves in the company’s 12 different ageing rooms in 2 very different locations – The Blandy’s Wine Lodge in Funchal and the Winery in Caniçal. This has allowed us to age our wines in very specific locations to make the most of the conditions best suited to each varietal.

This wine is a blend of Madeira wines with an average age of 10 years in seasoned oak casks in the traditional ‘Canteiro’ system. After the aging process, the wine is fined before bottling.

TASTING NOTES
Bright crystalline open gold amber colour with golden reflections. It presents a characteristic bouquet of candied and dry fruits macerated in brandy, notes of dried figs and dates, exotic spices, resinous woods. The attack is medium dry, good freshness balanced with salinity and sweetness sensations, leaving a long and rich aftertaste of smoked dried fruits, figs and some iodized elements.
