Borges Madeira 15 year old Malmsey

The sweetest of all Madeiras, Malmsey has its fermentation halted when its sugars are still very high. This style is characterized by its dark colour, rich texture with coffee-caramel flavours. Like other Madeiras made from the noble grape varieties, the Malvasia grape used in Malmsey production has naturally high levels of acidity in the wine which balances with the high sugar levels so that the wines do not taste cloying sweet. 15 years in oak add to the full-body, rich colour and potent bouquet that make this Madeira such an excellent dessert wine.
