Based in Funchal, Vinhos Barbeito crafts Madeira with emphasis on freshness and precise ageing. Malvasia represents the richest and sweetest traditional style. This 10 Year Old Reserva is produced from selected Malvasia casks aged by the canteiro method in seasoned oak barrels, allowing slow oxidative development. Bottled with an average age of ten years, it balances sweetness with natural acidity. Compared to Boal, Malvasia is fuller and more luscious, showing dried apricot, toffee, roasted nuts and dark caramel notes, supported by lifted acidity that prevents heaviness and ensures length. https://www.vinhosbarbeito.com
