Blandy’s, Madeira, 5 Year Old, Verdelho nv The flavor profile puts together the best of Amontillado from Spain with a splash of sweetness. You’ll find a woody, nutty essence with warmth and dried oranges.
This is a weighty aperitif that celebrates bold flavours and an underlying sense of the fortifying spirit. Verdelho is a style of Madeira that I grew to appreciate during our visit there some years ago, when we would drink it on the balcony before walking along the ocean to dinner. Produced and bottled by the Madeira Wine Company in Funchal 19% purchased for $21.50 at Traverso’s Blandy’s
