Henriques & Henriques Finest Dry 5yr Old NV (500ml)

Ageing in oak casks has given this dry wine a soft, subtle aroma. A very elegant aperitif with a brilliant fruity flavour.

Madeira is a fortified wine from the island of the same name—a kind of Galápagos Island for vines—in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Portugal. Often grown on terraced vineyards, Madeira is produced in a range of styles from off-dry to sweet, always with elegance and a distinctive, refreshing close. This is what separates the style from other, heavier-tasting fortifieds and it is one of the unique features that makes it so successful at the table (and so delicious in general). 

“Top-quality madeira is one of the world's most wickedly underrated fine wines. I know you will have read that about sherry - and that's true too - but I can understand why people don't like sherry. It does have a characteristic flavour that some palates will find off-putting. But madeira tastes like the elixir of life itself.” Jancis Robinson, www.jancisrobinson.com
