Blandy’s 10 Year Old Sercial
Sercial
Verdelho
Bual
Malmsey
Sercial is the driest varietal, with a late ripening and quite low in alcohol before fortification. Pale, light-bodied and dry, this is a fresh invigorating wine.
Pale, bright topaz color with a golden tinge, fresh with dry fruit, wood and citrus flavors with a fresh and nutty persistent finish.

As warmer weather approaches, this is a wine that should immediately come to mind at apéritif time. This bone-dry style, with its inimitable nutty character, is so fresh, so vibrant. It has some tannins, enlivening acidity giving a great lift at the end. Bring on the freshly salted, roasted almonds.

Mid deep amber, toffee at first then dried peach and apricot, hints of raisin. A well structured rich fresh finish.
