Madeira Collection NR 1
Region: Madeira
Producer: Vinhos Barbeito
The nice one. First blend with Tinta Negra mole , verdelho and malvasia. The Tinta negra has a good acidity and bring sturcture in the wine. Malvasia gives fruit and youth to wine. Verdelho always brings elegance to every madeira. There?s a small quantity of +60 y old tinta negra in the blend to give an extra touch of complexity. Amber in colour, with notes of dried fruit and caramel. Medium-sweet and round, with a warm, pleasant finish. Exclusively created by Barbeito for The Portugal Collection.| Volume | 50.0 cl. |

Waar serveer je ’m bij?
The Madeira Collection is a series we set up together with Barbeito to lower the threshold to Madeira — six blends, each with its own purpose. Number one is medium-sweet, with ten-year-old Tinta Negra for structure, Malvasia for the aroma and Verdelho for the freshness. Those three together make it the most balanced of the series: sweet enough for a dessert, fresh enough not to cling.

Savoury dishes, and desserts sweeter than the wine itself. An opened bottle does not need the fridge: it keeps for months.
