A dark, luscious and fragrant sweet wine with aromas of caramel. Full-bodied and very fruity, rich and a very intense palate.
Should be enjoyed as a dessert wine, with rich desserts, such as puddings, chocolate cakes and fruit desserts etc.
This 3 Year Old Madeira starts life as fermenting must and is then fortified before
undergoing its own very special maturation process. Made of predominantly
Tinta Negra Mole Grapes, harvest begins from mid-August due to the warm
southerly climate. A unique and highly sophisticated artificial Estufa process
is set up for the 3 year old wines, where temperatures rise to 45ºC before being
allowed to cool. This process takes 90 days and renders the wine completely
stable. It is then aged in oak casks for 3 years, prior to bottling
