Review: NV Blandy’s Sercial Madeira 10 Years Old
This Sercial bottling of Blandy’s Madeira is a 10 year old expression of its driest style of Madeira. Here it takes on notes of dry apple cider, roasted nuts, and spiced raisins. The finish has a sharpness to it — think spiked, wintry mulled wine — leading to more spicy, almost perfumed, baked apple notes. An interesting expression in comparison to the younger, drier 5 year old Sercial from Blandy’s.

This drink looks like a great tasting wine and one that I might actually get my wife to try because she is not much of a drinker!!!!
