Blandy's 20 Year Old Malmsey Madeira - NV (500ml)

Two centuries and seven generations producing excellent wines. Blandy’s distinguishes itself for being the only family, of all the original founders of the Madeira wine trade, which still owns and manages its own original wine company. 

This is a blend of different stocks of Malmsey, which spent an average of 20 years aging in oak barrels in the method called “Canteiro”, in the centuries-old Blandy’s Wine Lodge. 
On the island of Madeira, Malvasia vineyards thrive in Cambisol soils, which are thick, with a fine texture, medium organic matter content, characteristic of the south of the island, but also found in São Jorge, Santana, on the North coast, where Blandy’s has their vineyards at Quinta do Bispo. Over the past 40 years, this grape variety has expanded well in São Jorge, where temperatures are lower and the vineyards are influenced by the mountains and strong maritime winds from the Atlantic.

 Clear, bright, dark mahogany color with golden nuance. Characteristic complex bouquet, with aromas of rich fruitcakes, honey, brown sugar, spices and nuts. In the mouth it is sweet, rich, simultaneously fresh, with a long warm finish, of old brandy, dark chocolate and nuts

Total production of just 4000 bottles, R/S 125 g/l.
