Henriques and Henriques

‘H&H’ is one of the most famous names on the Portuguese island of Madeira. Founded in 1850 by Joao Joachim Henriques, the company has a rich history and a profound knowledge of the art of making Madeira. Unlike many of the other producers on the island, Henriques & Henriques is the only company with significant holdings of its own vineyards.

Madeira is very much a wine epitomised by its traditions which current winemaker Luis Pereira captures so well across the range. H&H produces a selection of styles from the drier, crisp Sercial through to intense and deep-coloured Malmsey. A limited amount of some rare single vintages, perfect for anniversaries, are also available from The Society.

This rich, lusciousand sweet fortified wine always entrances my senses and explodes on the palatewith a fireworks display of toffee, nut, honey, chocolate, toffee, caramel andraisin fruit. It's a tangy full-bodied wine with supreme balance, poise and asearing finish, the quince-like sweetness offset by delightfully tangy acidity.Crack it open with a bar of dark / milk chocolate, a chocolate mousse or asteamed chocolate pudding and try again at Christmas - once opened, a bottle ofMadeira will stay fresh for ages - with Christmas cake, mince pies or Stilton.Long and very pure, this is a striking wine that shows its best between 13& 14°C.

Made from malvasiagrapes, this sweet madeira has a deep mahogany hue and evocative aromas of darkfruit, walnut kernel and coffee. There is also an attractive raisin character;lovely with cheese.
