Blandys 5 Year Old Sercial Madeira Wine 75cl

Winemaking:
This Blandys Sercial Madeira was subjected to a process of fermentation and maceration of the musts, without contact with the skins, only using natural yeasts at a temperature of 20°C in stainless steel tanks. After 6 days, the fortification was induced, with brandy, and the fermentation was interrupted, after reaching the desired level of sweetness. It was aged in American oak casks according to the traditional "Canteiro" process. This includes a delicate warming of the wine in the loft of the warehouses in Funchal. Over the years the wine is transferred from the upper floors to the intermediate floors, and eventually to the ground floor where it is cooler. After this "gradual steaming" the filtered wine is clarified before the mixture is assembled and bottled.
