Description

A wine of exceptional quality made only from the Boal 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

At 90g of residual sugar, this lovely medium-sweet 1968 boasts a fine bouquet of roasted chestnut, espresso, ocean breeze and citrus lime. In the mouth, there are delicious flavours of molasses, quince, coffee bean, maple and lemon meringue, laced with stunning acidity, tension and great balance. HIghly enjoyable all the way to a persistent and clean finish.
