H M Borges Verdelho Madeira Porto

Description

This Verdelho from H.M. Borges is a real island hug, isn’t it? The nose immediately transports you to old oak, the sea air, and a hint of spice – clearly hinting at some adventurous voyages. On the palate, the acidity beautifully balances the sweetness, reminiscent of a welcome return from a tropical heat, while the firm tannins provide a solid structure. I’d suggest pairing it with some aged cheeses or a plum pudding – a classic combination.
