Sweeter styles of Madeira such as Malvasia are excellent digestifs and dessert wines. Serve it with blue cheeses, dried fruit, rich dark chocolate desserts, and sweet pastries with nuts, honey, or berries. If you have a well-aged Madeira, sip it on its own like a fine Cognac.

Is Madeira wine sweet or dry?
