Madeira

Madeira is an alcoholic wine produced on the Portuguese island of Madeira, off the coast of Africa. Madeira is produced in a variety of styles, from dry wines that can be enjoyed on their own as an aperitif to sweet wines that are usually enjoyed with desserts. Due to its complex, rich and multi-layered character, it is excellent for reducing sauces and adding to salad dressings. See our range of different Madeiras.
