Trophy-winning Madeira from the very individual Bual grape variety that offers a lovely halfway house between the rich opulence of Malmsey and the dryness of Sercial. An amber coloured wine with golden nuances and intense aromas and flavours of dried fruits. Try with chocolate based desserts. In the press: "This is one of the most poised, focused Buals I have tried and it overflows with coffee, nuts and dark brown sugar. It may seem expensive, but you need only a tiny glass of this magic elixir and any leftovers (rare in my house) will last open for weeks."
