The Henriques Malvasia 10 Yr is a traditional Madeira wine crafted from the Malvasia grape, known for its ability to produce rich, sweet wines with compelling complexity. The vineyards are planted on the sunny terraced slopes of Madeira, which provide the perfect conditions for the ripening of these grapes. The wine undergoes the unique Canteiro aging process for ten years, during which it is aged in oak casks under warm conditions, accentuating its complexity and developing layers of flavors. The wine has been the recipient of numerous accolades for its exquisite balance and depth. Henriques & Henriques, one of the leading producers of Madeira wine, has a rich history dating back to 1850, making it a guardian of Madeira’s winemaking traditions.
