O Produtor, tasting note published in November 7th 2021
Amber colour.
Intense and fresh bouquet with
notes of polished wood, pungent aromatic spice, slight balsamic, salted caramel, dried plum in syrup and walnuts. Very elegant in the mouth, refined flavours and fantastic acidity. Finesse on a citrus finish, fresh and long.
Excellent as a digestif and/or cigar.
Over the last few years Ricardo Diogo has had the privilege of working on some projects with the Favila Vieira (Ribeiro Real) and Manuel Eugénio Fernandes (Seixal) families, continuing the long-standing friendships that came from his grandfather and mother. He blended three wines together to make this blend, Cercial, Verdelho and Malvasia, each one symbolising the union of their families in preserving Madeira Wine and its history. This blend of grape varieties results in a wine that is marked by an extraordinary and unforgettable acidity. In November 2021, 618 bottles were bottled, all individually numbered.

Vinhos Barbeito
In the early years our company concentrated its efforts in the production of bottled wine. New concepts of marketing in the Madeira wine business were introduced as well as innovative packaging like the wickered flagon. The quality of our wines gained an excellent reputation among consumers which helped to strenghten Barbeito’s image in the international market. In 1991 another important change occurred in our company: for first time someone from our family became responsible for the making of the wine. In 1993, after two years learning the “secrets” of our wines’ style and character as well as studying modern techniques of wine making, Ricardo Freitas faced alone his first grape harvest. Thinking of the future, we began building a working team in which all members work under the same motto: produce good quality wines with a unique style.
Since then Vinhos Barbeito never stopped investing in the purchase of good quality grapes to make fine wines. To achieve that goal, year after year, we work to establish closer relationships with farmers.
