Product information "Blandy's Madeira, 5 Year Old Sercial Dry"
Light topaz red, freshness, dried fruit, citrus and nut. Drink slightly chilled as an aperitif or digestif. The history of the Madeira Wine Company as an association of different producers dates back to 1913, and in the 1980's the Blandy family realised that they needed a strong partner to develop their own profile and promote worldwide distribution. The Symington family, well known in the port wine industry, was able to provide this profile. In 1989 the Blandy and Symington families founded a joint venture. Investments in cellar technology, vineyard and headquarters followed, not only to produce a leading quality, but also to create a memorable atmosphere for visitors.

If the wine has the desired sugar content, the fermentation process is stopped with the addition of high-quality brandy. This is followed by the "esteufagem", the natural heating and cooling of the wine followed by 5 years of ageing in wooden barrels before the final blend and bottling.
