The wine region of Madeira
Portuguese volcanic island in the heart of the Atlantic, kingdom of indestructible fortified wines. Mythical Madeira heated by estufagem with signature notes of dried fruits, walnut, caramel, coffee, candied orange and a long iodine note, vibrant preserved acidity. 4 noble grapes define the styles: Sercial (dry, taut), Verdelho (medium-dry, smoky), Bual (medium-sweet, honeyed), Malvasia (sweet, candied). Tinta Negra as the base.
The wine region of Terras Madeirenses
IGP for the still wines of Madeira (≠ DOC Madeira fortified), vineyards on terraces on the Atlantic island. Tinta Negra dominant in sunny reds and rosés with ripe red fruits, cherry and a spicy touch, round mouthfeel. Verdelho, Sercial, Bual and Malvasia (historic Madeira varieties) as taut white kings with citrus, dried fruits and a marked saline-maritime touch. Touriga Nacional and internationals (Cabernet, Syrah, Chardonnay) as complement.
The word of the wine: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
