More questions
The Madeira Wine Extra Reserva Dry 15 anni Sercial by H.M. Borges represents an excellence rooted in the winemaking traditions of the island of Madeira. Produced with Sercial grapes, an indigenous variety known for its vibrant acidity and refined character, this wine stands out for the complexity developed through a long aging of fifteen years. The aging method, which involves the use of wooden barrels and the island's unique climatic conditions, helps create a rich and persistent aromatic profile.
On the nose, delicate notes of citrus, bitter almond, and a subtle mineral hint can be perceived. On the palate, it is dry, balanced by a lively freshness, with a clean and enveloping finish. Ideal as an aperitif or paired with dishes made of fish, shellfish, and aged cheeses, this Extra Reserva Dry best expresses the extraordinary versatility and finesse of Madeira wines.
