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: Local wine
Table wine, but with the origin indicated. It corresponds to a particular legislation: the freedom to use grape varieties is greater than for the AOC, but the quality criteria such as the approval tastings can sometimes be more demanding. The legislation is still evolving, but for the moment there are three levels: regional (e.g. Vin de Pays d'Oc), departmental and local (e.g. Côtes de Thongue).
