Cossart Gordon Verdelho 5 Years Old Madeira Wine
Cossart Gordon 5 Year-Old Verdelho is crafted from Verdelho grapes grown in high-quality vineyards in Ponta Delgada and São Vicente on Madeira, at elevations of up to 400 meters. Fermentation takes place off the skins with natural yeast in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures between 18–21°C. After about 4-5 days, fermentation is stopped through fortification with grape brandy to achieve its desired sweetness. The wine then matures using the traditional Canteiro system, aging in American oak casks, starting in the lofts of Funchal lodges (warmer), then moving through to cooler floors until it reaches the ground level.
With an alcohol content of 19% ABV, a residual sugar of 70 g/L, and total acidity of 6.00 g/L (tartaric acid), Cossart Gordon Verdelho 5 Years Old Madeira presents a clear topaz colour with golden hues. On the nose it offers the classic Madeira profile—intense and complex, with dried fruit, wood and spice notes. On the palate it is medium-dry, fresh and assertive, featuring orange peel alongside raisin-like fruit, giving a well-balanced and lingering taste. Served as an aperitif, it also pairs beautifully with soups, game birds, and pâtés, and remains enjoyable for several months once opened.
