More questions
Madeira Wine Dry 3 anni - H.M. Borges is an excellent example of the winemaking tradition of the island of Madeira, a volcanic territory in the heart of the Atlantic Ocean. This dry wine is made from a selection of indigenous grape varieties, often based on varieties such as Tinta Negra, which yield intense and complex aromas. After fermentation, the wine ages for at least three years, following the characteristic aging method that involves passing through warm cellars, giving it a rich structure and unique oxidative notes.
In the glass, it shows a bright golden color, while on the nose, scents of dried fruit, almond, and a pleasant mineral nuance typical of the territory emerge. On the palate, it stands out for its freshness balanced by a slight saline vein and a persistent, enveloping finish. It is ideal as an accompaniment to shellfish, aged cheeses, or paired with mildly sweet desserts. A true jewel of the Madeiran wine heritage.
