DENOMINATION
Madeira D.O.P
GRAPE VARIETIES
Malvasia
VINEYARDS AND VINIFICATION
Grapes from São Jorge,
(north coast). Grapes were pressed in a continuous press.
LOT
Cask 416 c+e stood out immediately for being more elegant, somewhat drier, less concentrated but with an aroma in which the Malvasia grape profile is very much present on the nose. The fact that the wine remained aging in two warehouses (c+e) where average temperatures are significantly lower when compared to warehouse D played a decisive role in the outcome of this Colheita. In February 2016, 1004 bottles have been filled, all individually numbered.
