Blandy's Duke of Sussex Dry Madeira (75cl)

Duke of Sussex is a three-year-old dry Madeira made from Tinta Negra, the island's only indigenous red grape. The grapes are selected from vineyards across Madeira. It is made using Blandy's traditional estufagem system, in which the wine is heated in stainless steel tanks with externally heated water jackets. This develops a soft caramel character while keeping freshness. The wine is then rested so the flavours integrate and the texture softens. It is light amber, with aromas of toasted nuts, caramel and subtle spice. The palate is smooth and elegant, with crisp acidity and a gentle mineral edge, followed by a long finish.
