2009 Madeira Blandy's Sercial Fortificado

Description

For 200 years, Blandy’s Madeira has been synonymous with quality Madeira wine. Blandy is the only family among all the founders of the Madeira wine trade still owning and running its original Madeira wine company. The family has played a significant role in leading the development of Madeira wine throughout its history, and family members continue to live in Madeira, maintaining a tradition dating back to 1811. The Madeira Wine Company was originally an association of several Madeira wine‑producing companies that decided to unite to strengthen their purchasing and production capabilities. The association was founded in 1913. During the years of discord, the old family companies of Blandy’s and Leacock joined, followed immediately by the dispute over Miles and Cossart Gordon, thereby creating the largest producer and exporter of Madeira wine. Whatever the size, maintaining the unique characteristics and style of each individual company was at the heart of the association’s focus. By the end of the 1970s, the interests in the Madeira Wine Company, as it became known, 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 join them in partnership. This partnership has continued to the present day, allowing the Madeira Wine Company to play a leading role in developing the Madeira wine trade.
