Ilha Tinta Negra Tinto

Description

This Tinta Negra from Madeira, a little anxious about the temperature during its making, presents a delightful embrace of cherry and black cherry liqueur, subtly spiced with a hint of rose petals – a touch of refinement, I confess, that suggests a delicate nature. The brief lees aging undoubtedly contributes to its freshness, making it wonderfully suited to a hearty grilled beef and roasted potato dish. A wine with potential for a pleasant surprise, though perhaps a touch reserved.
