Blandy's 10 Year Old Malmsey Madeira (6x50cl)

Blandy's 10 Year Old Malmsey, Madeira (6x50cl)

The story of Madeira, dating back to the 1420's, is one of remarkable success for the maritime world. They found that stocking up on essentials was invaluable whilst following global trade routes passing this island.

Wine was high on the list of essentials and it was the Portuguese who twigged that fortifying wines made them less susceptible to the rigours of ocean travel. 

The fact that as part of the process Madeira is 'cooked' at 40C for 6 months is another part of the story, which I am always happy to share.

When it comes to food pairing, a Portuguese Chocolate Mousse with this Malmsey is a "Marriage of Food & Wine"  made in Heaven!  See our Blog on other great combinations worth pursuing
