PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blandy’s Vintage Terrantez 1976 is a single harvest Madeira. This wine was aged for 21
years in seasoned American oak casks in the traditional “Canteiro” system, whereby the casks were gradually transferred from the top floors of the lodge, where it is naturally warmer, to the middle floors and eventually to the ground floor where it is cooler. The wine was regularly racked and when it reached the desired stage of maturity it was bottled.
