VINIFICATION<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Blandy’s 10 year old Medium Rich Bual underwent fermentation off the skins with natural yeast at temperatures between 18\u00b0C – 21\u00b0C in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. After approximately 3 days, fortification with grape brandy takes place, arresting fermentation at the desired degree of sweetness.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
MATURATION<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Blandy’s 10 Year Old Bual was aged for 10 years in seasoned American oak casks in the traditional ‘Canteiro’ system, whereby the casks of this wine are 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. During this totally natural ageing, the wine underwent regular racking before finally being bottled.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
