About this Item
Madeira Bual (or Madeira Boal) is a category of fortified wine made under Portugal's Madeira DOC, specifically from grapes of the Bual/Boal vine variety. Madeira Bual is typically sweeter than Madeira Sercial or Madeira Verdelho, but not quite as intensely sweet as Malmsey.
Boal is the original Portuguese form of a name used for various Portuguese grape varieties, while the English form Bual is generally used just for the variety grown on Madeira. All Madeira ages well, but Madeira Bual can outlive almost any other wine.
