2001 Henriques & Henriques Sercial Single Harvest Aged Madeira Wine

Henriques & Henriques Sercial Single Harvest Madeira 2001

Discover a rare gem from Portugal’s volcanic island: the distinguished Henriques & Henriques Sercial Single Harvest 2001 Madeira wine. Crafted exclusively from Sercial grapes nurtured in Madeira’s unique terroir, this exceptional expression represents a meticulously aged “Colheita” – bottled earlier than a full vintage yet possessing remarkable depth developed over years in traditional canteiro lodges.

Savor a captivating sensory journey. This 2001 vintage Madeira unveils a vibrant character where luscious caramelized apricot and zesty tangerine notes intertwine gracefully with subtle almond nuances. While offering an inviting richness of flavor and impressive extract derived from its extended canteiro aging, it retains Sercial’s defining hallmark: a distinctive, elegant salinity reminiscent of sea breeze – setting it apart from other Madeira styles. Perfectly balanced at 20% alcohol, it presents more as an intriguingly off-dry experience than austerely dry.

Ideal for discerning collectors and enthusiasts seeking rare aged dessert wines, this Single Harvest Madeira showcases Henriques & Henriques’ centuries-old mastery. Its complexity makes it superb for contemplative sipping after dinner or paired with rich cheeses and nut-based desserts. As part of our curated Fine & Rare collection, this limited-availability treasure offers unparalleled value for its age and provenance – an authentic piece of Portuguese winemaking heritage ready to grace your cellar or table now.
