The Blandys Duke of Clarence Rich Madeira is a dark golden brown with nuances of toffee, nut, honey and raisins. The history of the Madeira Wine Company as an association of different producers dates back to 1913, but in the 1980's the Blandy family realised that they needed a strong partner to develop their own profile and to 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 heating and cooling of the wine for 3 months followed by 3 years of ageing in wooden barrels before the final blend and bottling.
