Blandy's 10 Year Sercial Madeira

Blandy's 10 Year Sercial Madeira

$51.99

Dry, bitter almonds. Lovely balancing acidity and hazelnuts on the finish, which is long and satisfying. Perfect if you're a Port or Sherry fan looking to try something different. 

Blandy’s 10 year old Sercial is a blend of wines with an average of 10 years in seasoned American oak casks. The wines were aged at the family’s Lodge in Funchal in the traditional ‘Canteiro’ system, whereby the wine is gradually transferred from the higher floors where the temperatures are higher, to the middle floors and eventually to the ground floor where temperatures are cooler. The process of transferring the barrels is absolutely critical to ensure the right balance of ullage and concentration. All through the ageing process, the primary fruit flavours of the wine are gently transformed into tertiary dried fruit notes that produce unique Madeira hallmark bouquet. This wine was regularly racked during this ageing process and was fined before bottling. .

About Madeira

Madeira is a fortified wine style that originated on the Portuguese Island of Madeira, which resides off the coast of Portugal and Morrocco. What makes Madeira unique as a wine style is that it is intentionally "spoiled" during ageing by being heated and oxidized. This gives Madeira its unique, nutty flavour and also makes it incredibly age-worthy. There are many different styles of Madeira ranging from dry to sweet and it can be made with the following grape varieties: Tinta Negra Mole, Sercial, Verdelho, Bual/Boal, and Malvasia/Malmsey.
