Wine Tasting Notes
Bual, (or Boal) also known as "Malvasia Fina" is a vigorous varietal that does best on the south coast of the Island - between Ribeira Brava and Calheta. Picking is relatively early, producing a medium rich wine. Medium to dark, full-bodied and fruity with a well rounded flavor and attractive 'smoky' complexity. Ferments for approximately 3 days before fortification with grape brandy.
Blandy's 5 Year Old Bual Madeira is clear, amber color with tinges of gold; a bouquet of dried fruit, vanilla, wood and toffee with a smooth, medium-sweet finish and an excellent balance between the fruit and acidity.
