Fifteen years of Malmsey: honey-sweet, full and finishing on dark chocolate.
Tasting note
Bright golden brown, full-bodied and delicious, with a unique honeyed sweetness and a concentrated bouquet of dried fruit, wood, toffee and vanilla. Sweet, smooth, full and complex, with a very long finish of nuts and dark chocolate. Serve lightly chilled in summer.
Food pairing
As a dessert wine with dried fruit, chocolate mousse or dark chocolate, pralines and cream puffs.
The producer
The house is led by Chris Blandy, the seventh generation.
