Barbeito Madeira Collection 4 - medium dry

€ 28.50 / 50 cl

Striking are the low oxidation and citronal touches, a semi-dry mouthfeel and a dry final. "Rainwater" is a reference to the lighter "watery" style of the Nr. 4, and refers to the myth where barrels would have been diluted on the quay in Funchal before they were shipped to America, because rainwater would have been dripped into the barrels. The ideal way to really become a fan of this fantastic wine. The oxidative touch is less present and fruit dominates slightly more than in other Madeira wines

Madeira is a wine that matured in an oxidative environment for several years, and then comes to bottling in a reductive environment. It is therefore useful to open the bottles a few hours in advance. The bottles can then be preserved almost unlimited, as the air is no longer affecting Madeira wines. It is even so that after a few months the wine tastes better than when the bottle is just opened.
