In 1989, the Symington family became partners with the Blandy family and is helping to reinvigorate the Madeira trade. Grapes are grown in volcanic soil and hand-harvested due to steeply terraced cliffs. The resulting wines are highly acidic and were found by a historical accident to benefit from being heated - a process that would destroy any other wine. Originally, Madeiras were heated by the sun, stored in casks on the decks of boats exploring the world during the 18th century. Today, Madeiras are heated in a process called “estufagem,” which gives them great concentration and an incredible capacity to age while retaining some of the vibrant acidity unique to these wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Blandy family is unique in being the only family of all the original founders of the Madeira wine trade to still own and manage their own original wine company. Throughout its long history on the island, the family has played a leading role in the development of Madeira wine throughout its long history. Members of the family continue to live in Madeira, maintaining a tradition that goes back to 1811; 2 centuries of fine wine production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winebow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42399494471937,"sku":"094799051121","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0149\/9247\/4212\/files\/npf0beob6nwv8zgxqhiv.jpg?v=1765753595","url":"https:\/\/arrowine.com\/products\/blandys-madeira-bual-colheita-2007","provider":"Arrowine \u0026 Cheese","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
