"Quiet nose. Woodsy, rose hip, violets. Soft smokiness, like the first wisp from a pile of forest-damp wood. Quite floral, like walking through a bluebell woods on a wet May morning. Black pepper and Sichuan pepper on the end. Very composed. Grown-up gravitas." Tamlyn Currin, JancisRobinson.com, 15/1/2025. Drink: 2029 - 2038

Vines 60 to 70 years old. This smells like raspberry jam and sour cream piled on toasted scones. Flecks of graphite and gunflint, mica-bright minerality, river stones and moss and then masses and masses of raspberry fruit. Plus playful raspberry-candy sweetness. Intense without weight or heat, intense but graceful. A wonderful end note of linseed and rye adding more savoury intrigue to the wine." Tamlyn Currin, JancisRobinson.com, 15/1/2025.

Made predominantly from Tinta Negra Mole--with 10% Malvasia in this case-- Henriques & Henriques 3 Year Old blends are produced in an estufa process specifically set up for these wines. They are then aged in oak casks for 3 years prior to bottling. Henriques' Full Rich is a dark, luscious and fragrant sweet wine with aromas of dried fruit and caramel. Full-bodied and very fruity, it should be enjoyed as a dessert wine, with chocolate and fruit-based courses.

Decanter Magazine: Favourite Fortified Wine, 1998 Decanter Fine Wine Encounter (one of three). "Madeira is having a hard time, especially after a difficult vintage in 1998. Henriques & Henriques produce an outstanding range of 10-year-old Madeiras, but their 15-year-old Malmsey, with its scented, high-toned aromas and wonderfully sinewy flavors, is quintessential and better than many a vintage wine. It is also a bargain."

As with the 10YO, this is a striking, off-dry wine that can be served as an aperitif, with tapas type dishes or seafood. Also excellent with consommés or soups. Verdelho has a medium body and racy acidity. Jancis Robinson: "Beef extract and malt on the nose. Very interesting. Lovely broad, complete offering that is just off dry. Deep yet rich. Really reverberates on the palate. Complex, long and tense. 17.5/20"

This mindbogglingly complex Malvasia (weighting in at 20.45 alc/vol and just over 100 grams of residual sugar, balanced by delicious mouth-watering acidity) has been matured using the traditional Canteiro method in Henriques' purpose built lodges in Camara de Lobos. The wines are cask-aged in lodge attics, against south-facing windows, and at 20 years maturation thus, represents the best of Vinhos de Canteiro.This extraordinary wine is redolent of dried Turkish black figs and toffee, with penetrating citrus oils, toasted nuts and … more

Despite often being made in a rough and rustic style, this Touriga dominant blend is all pink lady apples, fragrant rose petals and graphite. Soft and shapely, there's a lovely, deep core of fruit that wraps around tongue-tingling acidity and an undeniably moreish finish.

Heroes is a bold name for a winery run by one of the humblest winemakers we know. James is all about showing that his vines are the real heroes, making fresh & unfussy wines with great varietal character. His Sauv does just that, verbena and tart passionfruit acid, tempered by a soft, smooth palate.

Grapes are sourced exclusively from vineyards in Balbaina and Miraflores, and only the free run juice is used for Oloroso Faraon. It's a dry oloroso - deep, rich and complex with a really intense flavour of grilled nuts but an astonishingly fresh acidity. A well-balanced and insatiably moreish style of Sherry that manages to walk a fine line between sweetness and richness. Hidalgo's tradmark minerality underscores notes of dried fig, walnut and caramel.
