Portugal in Tube 5 Year Old Reserva Fine Dry Madeira (Tasting Tube)

This Portugal in Tube Madeira is a 5 year old Reserva Fine Dry, a Portuguese fortified wine from the island of Madeira, sold in a small glass tasting tube. It is a simple way to discover dry Madeira, one of the most food-friendly fortified wines there is.

Tasting notes

Madeira is aged in warm conditions, which gives it its famous nutty, slightly toasted character and sharp acidity. A dry 5 year old Reserva typically shows dried fruit, walnut, citrus peel and a hint of caramel, with a clean, tangy finish rather than sweetness.

Food pairing

Serve it as an aperitif with salted almonds, olives and cured ham, or with a consommé, a mushroom dish, or a hard sheep cheese.
