Henriques & Henriques is one of the leading independent Madeira houses and one of the few to own and farm a significant share of its own vineyards, which is unusual on the island. The house is renowned for its extensive reserves of old wine in cask and bottle, some of them more than a century old, and its vintage wines represent the very top tier of its range.
This Verdelho was harvested in 1981, made exclusively from grapes grown at the house's own vineyards at Quinta Grande. As a vintage (Frasqueira) Madeira, it has been aged for at least 20 years in cask followed by a further period in bottle before release, the category regarded as the benchmark for world-class Madeira.
Verdelho is the medium-dry style of Madeira, sitting between Sercial and Boal in sweetness. Decades of slow maturation in cask give the wine great concentration and complexity, while the grape's naturally high acidity keeps it fresh, vibrant and long on the finish.
