Description

94 Points - Neal Martin - The Wine Advocate: "The 1910 Sercial has a tightly coiled bouquet with notes of walnut, nutmeg, white pepper and dried quince that demonstrates great clarity. The aromas become increasingly spicy in the glass, but never volatile. The palate is silky smooth, with laser-like acidity that slices through copious layers of dried honey, lemongrass, sour lemon, cumin and a touch of fennel. It has superb weight and presence, almost searing in sharpness towards the finish. This is an untamed, compelling Sercial."

Barbeito Madeira is a renowned producer of Madeira wine, which is a fortified wine from the Portuguese island of Madeira. Established in 1946, Barbeito is one of the few independent, family-owned producers of Madeira. Mario Barbeito founded his company in what was a dark time for Madeira with many companies going out of business. He had faith in the future. He also believed—just as Charles Ridpath Blandy, H.M. Borges and João D’Oliveira had done decades earlier—that the value of great Madeira could only go up as it became older, and production of young vintages declined. And so, a former accountant, Barbeito went around the island buying substantial stocks of priceless old vintages from important families. This bottle represents one of thos acquisitions.
