Cossart Gordon Vintage Verdelho 1975 Fortificado

Description

This Cossart Gordon Vintage Verdelho presents a colour reminiscent of a glorious day on the Madeira – deep golds flirting with tawny notes. Initially, the expected black tea fruit character appears subtly, almost as if the wine is considering its offering. On the palate, it’s luxuriously biscuit-like, demanding a complementary pairing like aged cheeses or a cherry pudding. The intense Demerara and caramel influence is undeniable, yet perfectly balanced by bright citrus acidity, resulting in a truly complex and rewarding wine.
