FEATURES
🏰 Cossart Gordon is a renowned producer of Madeira, and their Colheita Verdelho Single Harvest Madeira represents a medium-dry style of this fortified wine. Verdelho was historically considered the most representative variety on Madeira Island. 【This Cossart Gordon Colheita Verdelho offers a complex and intense aromatic profile, revealing cedar, exotic woods, tropical dried fruits, and spices, culminating in a very long and refreshing finish with salty notes and aged brandy characteristics】. It typically presents a clear, topaz color with golden nuances. On the palate, it's delicate, concentrated, and very fresh, with a superb metallic sensation due to its fixed acids. Tasting notes often highlight bitter toffee flavors, acidity, and touches of citrus, with layers of wood aging that have concentrated the wine.
🍴 Madeira, especially a Verdelho Colheita, is incredibly versatile. It pairs wonderfully with rich desserts like cakes and cream, but its acidity and nutty notes also make it an excellent match for savory dishes. Consider roasted pork belly, strong cheeses, or even a rich seafood bisque. For a Cantonese twist, try it with crispy roasted suckling pig, salted egg yolk prawns, or a rich double-boiled chicken soup, where its complexity can complement the umami flavors.
🥂 Ideal for an after-dinner digestif, a special occasion, or as a unique gift for someone who appreciates fortified wines. It's a wine that can be enjoyed on its own or with a wide range of culinary delights. This Madeira is fined and does not require decanting, and will keep for several months after opening. Store upright in a dark, fresh, and dry room with constant temperature, ideally no higher than 16°C.
