Rainwater Madeira DOP - Henriques & Henriques

Rainwater Madeira DOP - Henriques & HenriquesRainwater Madeira from the Madeira wine region appears in the glass in dense golden yellow. Slightly slanted, a transition of the wine color is visible at the edges in the direction. This Portuguese cuvée presents wonderfully expressive notes of black cherries, plums, damsons and morello cherries in the glass. These are joined by hints of beech smoke, dark chocolate and brown bread. Rainwater Madeira can be described as particularly fruity and velvety, having been vinified with a pleasantly mellow flavor profile. On the palate, the texture of this punchy Madeira is wonderfully silky and melting. Due to the balanced fruit acidity, the Rainwater Madeira flatters with a soft palate feeling, without lacking juicy liveliness at the same time. In the finish, this Madeira from the Madeira wine-growing region finally inspires with beautiful length. Again, hints of black cherry and plum show up. In the aftertaste, mineral notes of the soils dominated by silicate rock are added. Vinification of the Rainwater Madeira by Henriques & Henriques The basis for the first-class and wonderfully powerful cuvée Rainwater Madeira by Henriques & Henriques are Tinta Negra Mole and Verdelho grapes. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Madeira. The vines here dig their roots deep into soils of silicate rock. Food recommendation for the Rainwater Madeira from Henriques & Henriques with coconut-lime fish curry, spaghetti with yogurt-mint pesto or omelet with salmon and fennel.
