Topaz with golden nuance, a brilliant crystalline. Characteristic bouquet with notes of dried fruits and vanilla spices, and a hint of exotic woods. Medium rich palate is balanced and delicate, with a long finish of tea, dry leaves, spices and brandy.
Production Notes
Blandy’s Bual Colheita 2008 was made with Bual grapes collected from multiple small, terraced vineyards that cling to the steep mountainous slopes of the island, this is a medium- rich Madeira. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks until a neutral grape spirit brandy is added to stop the fermentation. Following fermentation, the wines undergo the ‘canteiro’ process used for fine Madeiras. They are placed in a lodge in American oak casks and heated solely by the sun’s warmth for 14 years. This heating process oxidizes the wine, giving it a very long life and its characteristic nutty, rich flavors.
