Malmsey

One of the four styles of Madeira as well as a synonym for Malvasia that is used on this island off the coast of Portugal. The great wine of Madeira is made by first fortifying the wine and then allowing to oxidize slowly over many years by the alternating hot days and cool nights on the island. Malmsey is a sweeter-style of Madeira, best suited for after dinner purposes.
