Madeira is made with four varieties of grapes, and a bottle of madeira should be labelled according to which were used in it. These are: sercial, a very dry taste, light color; verdelho, medium dry, golden color; bual, medium sweet, velvety, dark gold to brown; malmsey, the original grape, sweet, chestnut-brown. Madeira goes wonderfully with cheese, and works great as a pre-dinner sipper. The heavier madeiras also work well as a post-dinner dessert drink, for sipping by the fire. It should be served relatively cool, around 55-60F, like a port. It can be served in a port-style glass, small and thin
