Blandy’s Bual 1980 is a medium-rich fortified wine from the island of Madeira. Bottled after extensive canteiro ageing, this wine exhibits the concentrated effects of decades of evaporation and oxidation. The 1980 vintage produced Buals with massive balancing acidity, a trait that is essential for the long-term survival of the wine’s sweetness. The liquid is medium-dark with an intense bouquet of caramel, chocolate-coated raisins and dark fruit cake. The palate is remarkably smooth yet energetic, with the high residual sugar being perfectly countered by a sharp, citrus-driven backbone. Notes of walnut, vanilla and exotic spices linger on a finish that is both rich and surprisingly dry, typical of the oxidative style mastered by the Blandy family.
