Madeira J.H.Gonçalves Boal Fortificado

Description

The history of Madeira wine begins shortly after the discovery of the island that gives it its name, with records of the first productions and exports, 25 years after its discovery. On Madeira, vineyards are cultivated in small plots of land, known as “poios,” supported by earth walls on the mountain slopes, which are often difficult to access. The island’s unique soil and climate, along with the production process and the grape varieties grown, have contributed to the unparalleled distinction of Madeira wine over time. In addition to these factors, there are 30 varieties used for producing this fortified wine, the most noble being Sercial, Boal, Verdelho, and Malvasia.
