Barbeito Tinta Negra 2007 Medium Sweet
This wine originates from a single vineyard located on the lower slopes of Estreito de Câmara de Lobos in the south coast of Madeira Island. Half of the grapes were harvested a week before they reached full maturation, thus obtaining higher acidity levels by using the traditional Canteiro method in old French oak casks. In May 2018, 2.378 bottles have been filled. Wonderful dried fruit aromas with hints of walnuts, pistachio, yellow fruit Jam, green leaf with a mineral hint. Fresh delicate palate and a well- balanced citric acidity.
