 | | Once it is bottled, Madeira is a long lived wine, and from time to time an 18th cen- tury bottle is found in which the wine is still quite fresh. |  | | Regardless of the type of grape, all Madeira wines come from the small volcanic island of that name. |  | | All were developed by British wine merchants; all are fortified by the addition of brandy so that they have an alcoholic content of nearly 20%; all can be drunk as aperitifs or dessert wines; and all are relatively expensive. |

 | | Nowadays, Madeira is mostly labeled under the names of the classic grapes from which it is produced or the type it represents. |  | | Another method, typically used for lesser quality wines is the Cubas de Calor, or hot vat, which are large vats or tanks in which the wines are heated by a stainless steel coil at the bottom as a pump or propeller mixes the wine. |  | | The longevity of Madeira wine can be attributed in large part to the way in which it is made. |
