Barbeito Boal 5 Year Old Reserva Madeira
Barbeito are one of the smallest Madeira Wine producers, only founded in 1946 but has an extraordinary reputation. Ricardo, the founder’s grandson took over in the ‘90’s, reinventing the traditional wines and techniques. He was the first to bottle Madeira wine without adding caramel and has also bottled from a single cask, which was once a traditional way.
A medium sweet wine with aromas of dried fruit, honey and floral notes. It has a slight smokiness on the palate yet finishes fresh and tangy. Delightful on its own, but partners very well with semi-sweet dishes (such as poached figs, ginger cake), and can be very successful with a cheeseboard.

Recreating the classic style of Rainwater, medium dry in character. Dried fruit, orange blossom and crystallized fruit aromas with a soft yet full bodied palate and a long minerally finish. An excellent aperitif, but also wonderful with French Onion Soup, Welsh Rarebit, cheeseboard, mushroom dishes, and game terrine.

Aromas of toasted almonds, honey and hints of smoke. Lightly caramelized fruits bring a freshness on the palate. A sweet wine, but with great balancing acidity. This really complements desserts with caramel, dried fruits and toffee.

The Sercial grape from which this is made, has proved hard to grow but has become indigenous to the island of Madeira. This is a really unique wine, naturally aged in casks. Aromas of dried fruits pine and resin. A minerally, fresh palate with an endless finish.
Winner of the IWC Madeira Trophy in 2003. Excellent as an aperitif.
