LOT
"The vineyards Ribeiro Real spread over the south side of Madeira Island at an elevation of 200 meters above sea level. This wine growing area of rich volcanic soil fully exposed to the sun, benefits both from wind protection provided by the slopes on the sides, and from the sea breeze that blows from the southwest. Great Madeira wines originated in this locality, such as Favila Tinta Negra, awarded royal patronage under King Luís I. This Tinta Negra 20 year old is yet another homage to the history of Madeira Wine. In July 2016, 1.183 bottles were filled, all individually numbered.
