Winemaking process:
Boal from the single 2014 harvest is fermented in stainless steel and fortified with grape spirit after a few days, keeping natural sweetness. The wine then ages in French and American oak casks by the canteiro method, warmed slowly under the lodge roof. Justino's, founded in 1870, is one of Madeira's oldest wine houses.
Interesting notes:
Boal, also called Bual, is a white grape used for medium-sweet Madeira, known for dried-fruit, caramel and nutty notes balanced by fresh acidity.
