Barbeito Verdelho 1995
Region: Madeira
Producer: Vinhos Barbeito
VerdelhoThe grape used to make medium dry wines comes mainly from the south, but also from Sao Vicente in the north. General planting is about 46 hectares across the island. The grape is very aromatic and frivolous and has great potential for acidity.
Barbeito
The wines contain a purity and energy unseen, with an underlying acidity that gives all wines an elegance that has become his signature . It was also Ricardo who was the first to market delicious Canteiro wines based on Tinta Negra Mole. No doubt a choice that gave him an edge over other producers and earned him the title of "gamechanger" with international press. The Madeira Collection 1/2/3/4/5 are also blends based on these young vinous Barbeito wines
