After this gradual 'aging, the wine is clarified and filtered before being bottled.

Don't let the medium you—that's how this is supposed to look. Malmsey is the sweetest of the Madeiras, and this one is intensely sweet, yet also lemony-tart at the same time, with flavors of black walnuts, molasses and coffee.
