Maderista XY
Region: Madeira
Producer: Madeira Wine Company SA
Why we chose this wine
Maderista XY is a new blend in the Maderista range, a project between The Madeira Collection and Francisco Albuquerque, winemaker at Blandy's.
As always, Tinta Negra Mole provides the structure of the wine with a medium dry mouthfeel.
We added verdelho for freshness and elegance. Sercial ensures a drier wine and always gives an energetic boost to the wine.
