TASTING NOTES
It might be said that the history of Henriques & Henriques is the history of Madeira itself. Legend has it that Infante Dom Henriques planted the island’s first vines in 1425. These vines gave fruit to one of the “first families of Madeira” and in the process sunk deep roots which Henriques’ descendants and successors continue to draw upon in guiding H&H today. -Importer's Notes
Beckoning notes of crème brûlée, almond, orange zest and sea spray dance across the palate and linger on the finish. Begin with a glass as an aperitif, or at the table with salmon, swordfish or game birds; savory soups and seafood chowders; nuts and hard cheeses.
