Sercial 10 Years Old - Vinhos Justino Henriques
Prices incl. VAT plus shipping costs
The Sercial 10 Years Old from Vinhos Justino Henriques is a wonderful Madeira of pure grape variety.
In the glass this wine shines in a light reddish brown with golden reflections. The fresh aroma inspires the nose. Aromas of fresh walnuts and acacia honey unfold. The classic notes of dried fruit are also present in the bouquet and on the palate. The personality is wonderfully lively and has a medium-length, warm-hearted finish.
Vinification of Justino Henriques Sercial
The Sercial grapes come from 17-year-old vines grown on limestone and sandstone on the small island of Madeira.
After harvesting and selection, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. This wine is then aged for at least 10 years in used wooden barrels. These are married from several wines, which were all produced by the individual vinification of white grapes and which have spent at least 10 years in oak barrels before the bottling.
