HM Borges Tinta Negra 2005 Sweet Madeira Wine reveals a bright amber colour with yellow-orange reflections. It has an intense aroma of exotic woods with a predominance of caramel, honey, toast and roasted almonds. The palate has an intoxicating, velvety and persistent flavour, with its own character transmitted by the wood of the cask, copious and complex. Notes of iodine, tobacco, spice, nuts, chocolate and vanilla.
Graceful and attractive for any occasion. Special at the end of a meal as a digestif. An excellent accompaniment for cheese lovers. It should be served at a temperature of between 15ºC and 16ºC
H.M.Borges was founded in 1877 by Henrique Menezes Borges, who dedicated his whole life to the search for a selection of wines produced in Madeira Island, in order to proceed to their aging. It is currently run by the fourth generation of your family.
<p></p><p>The founders of D’Oliveiras were visionaries that saw the true value of Madeira Wine: its ability to improve over time. Therefore they started storing as much Madeira Wine as possible, letting it slowly mature inside the barrels for future generations to be able to enjoy it further. For that reason, D’Oliveiras is the only Madeira Wine company that owns Madeira Wine bottles and Barrels from as far as the 1850’s that can still be commercially purchased.</p>

<p></p><p>The story of Henriques & Henriques, founded by João Gonçalves Henriques, dates back to 1850. After his death in 1912, a partnership was established between his two sons, Francisco Eduardo and Joaquim Henriques, which gave rise to the name Henriques & Henriques .<br />From the earliest times, Henriques & Henriques occupied a prominent place in viticulture and the art of making wine. In 1913 the family interests were constituted in a company of the family that, in 1925, began its activity like exporter of its wines to the detriment of the local supply to other exporters</p>

<p></p><p>At room temperature, or just a little cooler, this wine makes a wonderful aperitif, especially when served with salted almonds, olives or nuggets of Parmesan. It is also excellent when served with starters such as pat foie-gras, duck confit, welsh rarebit, game terrine or Yorkshire Pudding and onion gravy.</p>
