Blandys Malmsey Colheita 2011 Porto

Description

“Ah, the Blandy’s Malmsey 2011… a classic that doesn’t need introduction, but certainly deserves a touch of irony. Prepare for a lavish treat of floral notes and plump raisins soaked in brandy, all orchestrated by Malvasia Fina – a grape that clearly has a story or two to tell. The aging in pipas (small wooden barrels) delivers a luscious, liqueur-like sweetness, with hints of crème fraîche that feel almost like a promise. The lengthy finish is worthy of a well-aged brandy, and the complexity genuinely defies logic. Perfect with a decadent chocolate pudding, or for those moments when you simply want to indulge in a delightfully extravagant sweetness.”
