Leacock's 5 Yr Old Madeira
Dry island Madeira, stocked in small numbers in Commack.
The story behind Leacock's 5 Yr Old
Madeira is a fortified wine from the island of Madeira, off the coast of Portugal, and it is one of the few wines deliberately exposed to heat and air during aging. That process, part of what makes the category what it is, gives Madeira its hallmark brightness and its long life after opening. Sercial is the driest of the classic styles, lean and saline, with a snap of citrus and toasted nuts.
