TN: Blandy's 1996 Bual Madeira

Post by Andy Velebil »

Bottled 2011. Lodge 1 Este, Cask 24061/2. This one has lots of VA and citrus on the nose. A dry expansive palate, lots of acid, citrus, dried nuts, baked brown sugar, and some stems which took me by surprise. Quite seamless transition to the finish which lingered a long time. So far this was my favorite of this line up from Blandy's.
