Blandy's Bual Vertical
Blandy’s 10 Year Old Bual ****
Mid-amber; lovely smokey aromas, gentle, refined and above all clean, none of the rancio of yesteryear; soft initially, dried apricots followed by lemon and lime marmalade, long and clean with a fine streak of acidity running all the way through. 17
Blandy’s 1996 Colheita Bual **** / *****
Pale green-tinged amber; fine lifted aromas, sings from the glass, smoked apple and a touch of autumn bonfire; lovely crisp citrus character, clean lemon and lime fruit, long and sinewy, sweetness and acidity in perfect balance. 18.5
