Store & Serve

Always store a Madeira wine upright.

Madeira's acids are so strong that they attack the cork if the bottle is stored horizontally

Serve at 18°C

 

Madeira is a wine that has been aged for several years in an oxidative environment, before being bottled in a reductive environment. It is therefore useful to open the bottles a few hours in advance. The bottles can then be stored almost indefinitely, as the air no longer affects Madeira wines. In fact, after months - if there is any left - the wine tastes better than when the bottle was opened.
