Is Colheita Verdelho Madeira a good wine?
Tasting profile
A complex, long-lived Verdelho with high acidity balancing rich sweetness, showing caramel, raisin, dried apricot, hazelnut and toasted nutty notes alongside warm spice like nutmeg and clove. Savory rancio and iodine character lead into an exceptionally long, refined finish, drier and more balanced than many sweeter fortified wines.
Synthesized from 72Vivino reviewers' tasting notes for this bottle.
What reviewers say
“High acidity, classic rancio iodine character. Savory. Very long refined finish. Still youthful at more than 165 years old. Unbelievable.”
