Blandy’s 10 Year Old Bual NV is a fortified wine from the island of Madeira. This complex wine displays a rich amber hue, accented by subtle gold edges. On the nose, it offers distinct aromas of dried fruits, particularly figs and raisins, accompanied by hints of toasted almonds and a touch of caramel. The palate reveals a medium sweetness, characterised by flavours of roasted coffee and citrus, balanced by a refreshing acidity. This fortified wine is crafted by Blandy’s, a historic producer established in 1811, renowned for its traditional Madeira production methods. Ideal with blue cheeses, nuts, or rich desserts.

The August 2024 bottling of the NV Bual 10 Year Old was produced with grapes mostly from the south of the island, between Ribeira Brava and Calheta on volcanic soils. It fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in oak casks according to the "canteiro" method for an average of 10 years. It was fortified to 19% alcohol, keeping a pH of 3.4 and 95 grams of sugar. It`s complex, nutty and very spicy, with notes of quince paste, caramelized fruit and a touch of brandy and a resinous, volatile touch.
