The Blandys Madeira Malmsey Rich - 5 year old is clear and amber in colour with shades of gold and exudes a bouquet of dried fruit, vanilla, wood and toffee. On the palate it shows a perfect balance between fruit and acidity and ends in a long and highly satisfying finish.

The grapes were harvested by hand and fermented with natural yeast at temperatures between 18° C - 21° C in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. After about 48 hours, when the desired sweetness is reached, the fermentation is interrupted by adding brandy. The wine has been matured in the traditional 'Canteiro' system in American oak barrels where the wine is slightly warmed and over the years is moved from the upper floor to the middle floor and finally to the ground floor where it is cooler and can continue to mature until bottling and release.
