Madeira

Madeira Wine Details
Price: $38.00 per bottle

Description: “I may almost say that I had yet to taste a good Madeira until I arrived in the united States,” remarked British writer Frederick Marryat in 1839. If only he could taste V. Sattui’s historic Madeira and see how much further we have come. Still the oldest, traditionally-made Madeira wine produced in the U.S., it is a brandy-laced, tawny port-like, after-dinner wine crafted in the style reminiscent of Madeiras made in the colonies by English settlers in the early 1800s and, today, on the island of Madeira itself.
