Blandy’s Malmsey Vintage 1981

Blandy’s Malmsey Frasqueira 1981 underwent an ageing process in old oak barrels in the warm cellars of the winery, where it aged for 37 years. This process, known as “canteiro”, imparts unique aromas and flavours to the wine. After a few years, the wine was transferred to cooler warehouses to continue its gentle, natural ageing until it was bottled. Amber in colour with greenish reflections, crystal clear and shiny, the nose shows a characteristic and exuberant bouquet, with notes of exotic wood, toasted confectionery, candied fruit, spices and smoky notes. Sweet, smooth and dense, well concentrated with excellent freshness, leaving a long aftertaste of brandy, spices and honey. Contains sulfites.
