Madeira Câmara De Lobos Velhíssimo Fortificado

Descrição

According to legend, the primary mentor of Madeira wine was Prince D. Henrique, who encouraged the cultivation of the Malvasia Cândida grape—originally from Candia in Crete—on the island of Madeira, a venture that proved to be a success. By the mid‑15th century, Madeira wine was already being exported, with routes that included Europe, where it was prized for its refinement and even used as perfume on the ladies of the court’s handkerchiefs. The prestige of this nectar was such that references to it are common in history, art, and the legends of various nations. The year of bottling may not correspond to the image shown.
