Description

Madeira is made on the vulcanic island of the same name situated in the Atlantic ocean some 400 miles off the North African coast. The sub-tropical island was discovered in 1419 by portuguese explorers who, finding it heavily forested, named it Madeira - the Portuguese wood for wood or timber.

In 1807, John Blandy was posted to the island as part of the British Army garrison sent to Madeira to thwart any invasion attempt by Napoleon´s forces. He returned and settled on himself in the wine trade.

This is the richest style of Madeira, full bodied, rich and soft texture. It is a splendid after-dinner drink.

Nota de Prova

Castanho dourado profundo com mel e passas. Ao nivel do olfato, é doce, encorpado e de textura suave. Uma ótima bebida para deliciar depois do jantar.

Suggestions

Blandys Duke of Clarence is fined and does not require decanting. It is a superb accompaniment to dessert dishes, especially fruit, cakes, chocolate puddings and soft cheeses. It has been bottled when ready for drinking and will keep for several months after opening.
