2008 Barbeito Tinta Negra

Post by winesecretary »

Light Gold

Distinctive tinta negra petrol note on the nose.

Tastes better than it smells - citrus warmth, then apricot. Second and third sips better than the first.

Short spicy finish.

One of the samples discussed as part of the Madeira Masterclass of the Big Fortified Tasting, presented by Rubina Viera from the IVBAM on Thursday 29th April 2021.
