1. Not sure, except that....
Madeira is from Portugal and sherry is from Spain.

Other than that?

2. As I understand it and I may be wrong
Its the same difference between champagne and sparkling wine. Madeira is supposedly a superior sherry but to be called Madeira is has to come from there.

3. Madeira is a town in Spain where Sherry wants to go?
