The Madeira style of fortified wine is made by adding very high-strength spirit to the fermenting must – this stops fermentation, leaving residual sugar (112g/L here). The wine is then aged in barrel for a decade, with some space in the barrel allowing for gentle oxidation. It's a delicious wine to enjoy with mince pies, Christmas cake or even sticky toffee pudding, and it lasts ages once open, so you can work your way the 50cl bottle over the festive holidays. An intense mélange of salted caramel, fig, black treacle, raisin and coffee, it feels indulgent and hedonistic – just right for Christmas! Serve slightly below room temperature, but not fridge cold. Mix six price £23.50
