<p></p><p>The founders of D’Oliveiras were visionaries that saw the true value of Madeira Wine: its ability to improve over time. Therefore they started storing as much Madeira Wine as possible, letting it slowly mature inside the barrels for future generations to be able to enjoy it further. For that reason, D’Oliveiras is the only Madeira Wine company that owns Madeira Wine bottles and Barrels from as far as the 1850’s that can still be commercially purchased.</p>

<p>Rosé dos Villões is a unique wine produced from the Tinta Negra grape variety. Tinta Negra is an ancient grape variety from the Madeiran islands, and is still the primary base for the wines that have made this island famous. It is a rare grape variety that can only be found in regions close to the sea, where it is known by other names such as Molar in the Colares region or Saborinho in the Azores region. However, it should not be confused with the Negra Mole from Algarve, as it is a distinct grape variety. In the past, its role seemed to be to "blush" the white wines and give them a certain golden appearance that was appreciated at the time. Here, we test the potential of this grape variety in a Rosé.</p>

<p></p><p>Barbeito &amp; Niepoort Os Mestres</p> <p>Blending together grape varieties continues to be a relatively rare practice when it comes to Madeira wine. Ricardo Diogo and Dirk Niepoort tasted the various batches used for this dry “Reserva Especial” directly out of the barrels in one of the “Vinhos Barbeito” winery’s cellars.</p> <p>Notes of star anise, touches of stalkiness from the stems, apricots, macerated fruit, and hints of caramel. Tropical flavours appear on the wine’s pleasantly round but also structured palate. The wine’s crisp acidity leads into a beautifully dry finish.</p>
