Blandy's

5 Year Old Sercial Madeira 750mL

The Blandy’s are unique in being the only family of all the original founders of the Madeira wine trade to still own and manage their own original wine company. The family has played a leading role in the development of Madeira wine throughout its long history and in the economic development of this remote Atlantic Island and members of the family continue to live on Madeira, maintaining a tradition that goes back to 1811. Blandy’s Madeira remains totally dedicated to the traditions, care, and craftsmanship of Madeira Wine making and has been owned by the same family for 200 years and seven generations.

Blandy's 5 year old Sercial was aged in American oak casks in the traditional 'Canteiro' system. Pale, bright topaz color with a golden tinge, fresh with dry fruit, wood and citrus flavors with a fresh and nutty persistent finish. It is excellent as an aperitif but is also exceedingly good with starters, fish dishes and spicy cuisine. It has been bottled when ready for drinking and will keep for several months after opening.
