1994 Madeira Blandy's Bual Fortificado

Description

For 200 years, Blandy’s Madeira has been synonymous with quality Madeira wine. Blandy, the only family among all the founders of the Madeira‑wine trade still owning and running its original Madeira‑wine company, has played a pivotal role in the development of Madeira wine throughout its history, and family members continue to live on the island, preserving a tradition that dates back to 1811. The Madeira Wine Company was originally an association of several Madeira‑wine producers who joined forces to strengthen their purchasing and production capacities. This association was founded in 1913. During a period of discord, the old family firms of Blandy’s and Leacock merged, followed immediately by a dispute over Miles and Cossart Gordon, creating the largest producer and exporter of Madeira wine. Whatever its size, maintaining the unique characteristics and style of each individual company remained the focus of the association. By the late 1970s, the interests in the Madeira Wine Company—by then known by that name—had been reduced to just a handful of the original families, with the Blandy family holding the controlling share. In 1989, the Blandy family, needing to strengthen the sales and marketing side of the business, invited the Symington family from Porto, Portugal, to partner with them. This partnership has continued to the present day, allowing the Madeira Wine Company to play a leading role in the development of the Madeira‑wine trade.
