Justinos Madeira Terrantez Old Reserve demi-sec
€ 185.00
Over 40-year-old Terrantez: musk, honey and a fresh, mineral finish.
Tasting note
A pure, brilliant pale amber. An intriguing, elegant and complex nose of musk and wood with delicate notes of honey. This Old Reserve, more than 40 years old, is medium dry, with flavours of nuts and minerals and a refreshing finish.
The story
Terrantez is one of the oldest grape varieties in the world. The vines give very low yields but grapes and wines of high quality. As there is little incentive on Madeira to plant new Terrantez, these wines have become rare.
Food pairing
Walnut bread with Manchego and Spanish ham such as jamón serrano. Roast duck with a dark chocolate sauce.
