This 10-year-old Bira Madeira is amber-colored with golden reflections. Beautiful complex. An intense and complex aroma of dried fruits such as figs and plums with almond nuts, as well as subtle tones of caramel and vanilla spices. A luxurious wine with medium body and very smooth, an excellent balance between coffee and fruit flavors, clean and fresh acids resulting in a long lasting finish.
An excellent aperitif and dessert wine
