1904 Madeira A.S.A. Boal Fortificado

Description

The history of Madeira wine begins shortly after the island that gives it its name was discovered, with records of the first productions and exports dating 25 years later. On Madeira, vines are cultivated in small earth enclosures called “poios”, supported by earthen walls on mountain slopes that are often hard to reach. The island’s unique soil and climate, along with the production process and the grape varieties grown, have contributed to Madeira wine’s unparalleled distinction over time. Beyond these factors, thirty varieties are employed for this fortified wine, the most esteemed being Sercial, Boal, Verdelho and Malvasia.
