Collection 4: a light Rainwater style, where the fruit takes the lead.
Tasting note
Remarkably low oxidative notes and citrus touches, a medium-dry mouthfeel and a dry finish. The oxidative character is less present and the fruit dominates a little more than in other Madeiras.
The story
‘Rainwater’ refers to the lighter style of this number 4, and to the legend of casks diluted by rain on the quay in Funchal before being shipped to America. An ideal way to become a Madeira fan.
The Madeira Collection is a series of Barbeito blends made for fine dining.
Madeira spends years ageing in an oxidative environment and moves into a reductive one at bottling. It is therefore best to open the bottle a few hours in advance. After that, air no longer affects the wine: an open bottle keeps almost indefinitely and often tastes even better months later. Always store Madeira upright, as the acidity attacks the cork if the bottle lies down.
Food pairing
Ideal as an aperitif, served cool, or with foie gras.
