MALVASIA CÂNDIDA
1996
Malvasia Cândida was the first grape variety to be planted on Madeira Island, in the second half of the 15th century. It arrived in Fajã dos Padres brought by the Jesuit Priests. In November 1921, Fajã dos Padres was acquired by the Vilhena de Mendonça family who, to celebrate the first centenary of ownership of the property, decided to bottle these 531 bottles of Malvasia Cândida 1996. This wine aged for 25 years in the property's cellar, located by the sea, and is already the fourth bottling carried out by Vinhos Barbeito since 2012.
Dark Colour, fresh and intense bouquet with hints of coffee, wood, some earthy notes, cloves, nutmeg and molasses. Robust on the palate with a bold citric acidity. Lingering bittersweet in the aftertaste. Excellent as a digestif, with cigars or tobacco pipe.
