Henriques & Henriques, Tinta Negra, 50 Year Old Madeira

Henriques & Henriques, Tinta Negra, 50 Year Old Madeira - NV

Item # 40113 500 mL

The Tinta Negra is the most planted grape on the archipelago of Madeira. In recent decades, H&H has sought to highlight the virtues of this grape which, in the hands of excellent vintners, shows remarkably with age.
