<p>Justino's Single Harvest 2000 Madeira Wine presents an amber to cashew hue, clear and bright, typical of prolonged aging in wood. Its aromatic profile is complex and rich, marked by intense notes of dried fruits such as nuts and almonds, nuances of spices, roasted caramel, and slight hints of exotic wood and smoke. On the palate, it stands out for the balance between its natural sweetness and a vibrant, refreshing acidity, a structural feature of the wines from this region. It has a smooth texture and a long, persistent, and dry finish.<br /><br />Unlike still wines, Madeira wines of this style have high stability due to their manufacturing and maturation process. Once opened, the bottle maintains its organoleptic properties for several months, as long as it is stored in a cool place and away from direct light. It should be served slightly chilled, ideally between 13°C and 15°C. Madeira wine is known for its unique and distinctive character, and Justino's Single Harvest 2000 exemplifies these qualities, offering a nuanced and memorable tasting experience. This wine is not only a delight to drink, but it also serves as a testament to the rich winemaking tradition of the Madeira region.</p>

<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>With an alcohol content of 19% ABV, a residual sugar of 70 g/L, and total acidity of 6.00 g/L (tartaric acid), Cossart Gordon Verdelho 5 Years Old Madeira presents a clear topaz colour with golden hues. On the nose it offers the classic Madeira profile—intense and complex, with dried fruit, wood and spice notes. On the palate it is medium-dry, fresh and assertive, featuring orange peel alongside raisin-like fruit, giving a well-balanced and lingering taste. Served as an aperitif, it also pairs beautifully with soups, game birds, and pâtés, and remains enjoyable for several months once opened.</p>
