Island wine from Portugal

Cossart Gordon Madeira 5 Years Old Malmsey nv
This is a rich style of Madeira from the Malvasia grape, known as Malmsey. The nose features toffee and caramel with a healthy dose of toasted nuts. In the mouth, you taste all of that in a framework of acidity. There’s plenty of weight from the underlying alcohol and while it is sweet as expected, the Madeiran acidity plays its balancing role. Bring on the Rocquefort! P&B by the Madeira Wine Company in Funchal 19% $24.99 at Bottle Barn Cossart Gordon
