Description

A wine of exceptional quality made only from the Malvasia grape variety, aged in cask under the traditional canteiro system for a minimum of 20 years and bottled only when it begins to display the degree of depth and complex charachteristic of full maturity. Vintage Madeira aka Garrafeira or Frasqueira are the epitome or excellence and the glory of Madeira.

Tasting Notes

This early 20th century madeira, with 160g of residual sugar, has a lifted aroma of orange blossom, flowers, sultana, apricot jam and a hint of smokiness. The palate is spicy and rich with caramel, marmalade and roasted hazelnut, enveloped in bright acidity and onto a smooth and lingering finish.
