Sourced from the vineyards of Alegria, Valeira and Trovisca, in the heart of the Douro, it reflects our terroir with authenticity. Aged in oak barrels, ALEGRA blends structure and freshness in a serene ode to the natural beauty of the Douro. Gouveio (64%), Rabigato (16%), Moscatel Galego (15%), Arinto (5%). 

93 Points! It has exuberant aromas of dried pineapple, apricots and dried herbs. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, saline and concentrated, with a long, savory finish. A blend of encruzado and bical with 20% from an old white field blend. 30% is fermented and aged in used barrels and the rest in stainless steel. Incredible value. Drink now. - JamesSuckling.com

One of our classic summertime go-tos, composed of Loureiro, Arinto, Trajadura and aged just in stainless steel. It's bottled with a touch of carbon dioxide trapped inside to give it a little 'spritz', 10% alcohol and an absolute joy to drink. Too easy!

95 Points! Medium-rich in style (92 g/l residual sugar), the grapes for this wine originate from Calheta on the warmer south coast of Madeira. Mid-amber hue with gently smoked, yet rich savoury-spicy aromas – quite seductive and evocative. Lovely Elvas plum and quince marmalade richness with a spicy backdrop, balanced by fresh appley acidity. The long finish is akin to a gently cinnamon-spiced tarte tatin. Shows great complexity for a colheita. Glorious with savoury patés and stands up well to a curry, though equally good with caramelised oranges or a hedonistic slice of fruit cake mid-morning. - Decanter Magazine

92 Points! A youthful, flattering Malmsey, with jasmine, apricot, flan, toasted meringue and elderflower honey notes supported by nicely understated acidity. Drink now. - Wine Spectator

93 Points! Lilting jasmine, white sesame and honeysuckle notes are backed by elderflower, mirabelle plum and bitter orange accents in this lithe and refreshing version, with a cool sweet/dry tension on the pretty finish. Drink now. - Wine Spectator

94 Points! Verdelho makes medium-dry wines; the grapes for this come from Porto Moniz on the cool northwest corner of Madeira island. Mid-deep amber with a green glint. Lovely, lifted savoury aromas with a hint of dried apricots and raisins, very appetising. Delicate leafy, greengage fruit, with considerable richness (75g/l residual sugar) offset by zesty acidity that persists onto a long mouth-watering finish. Lovely poise for a relatively young Madeira wine. Enjoy a glass of this with consommé, clear soups or a Welsh rarebit. - Decanter Magazine

98 Points! Dark fruit with black cherries, blackcurrants, mineral, and slate undertones. Medium to full body. Racy fine tannins. It’s chewy and driven. This is an undeclared Barca Velha. Superb Douro red. Latour of the Douro. A blend of 42% touriga franca, 34% touriga nacional, 13% tinta roriz, and 11% tinto cao. - JamesSuckling.com,

90 Points! The 2022 Vinha Grande is a blend of Touriga Francesa, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca and Tinta Roriz that matured in used French oak barrels for 12 months. 2022 was a very warm and very dry year (with one-third of the normal amount rain; 2005 was the driest year in Douro). It's an aromatic, gentle and approachable red with notes of berries, herbs and spice, a certain creaminess and a velvety palate with contained ripeness. They have room for growth here, because this wine is a mixture of grapes from different vineyards, showing the character from Douro; it's approachable and good for the table, with a certain structure and fine tannins. It's soft and easy. - Luis Gutierrez, robertparker.com

92 Points! Raspberries, dried herbs, fig and graphite on the nose of this juicy and mellow red. It’s medium- to full-bodied with silky tannins and excellent freshness. Drink now or hold. - JamesSuckling.com

Touriga Nacional (50%), Merlot (30%), Cabernet Sauvignon (20%)

90 Points! Intense and concentrated, with a broad array of dark chocolate, maple, smoke and baked peach. Enjoy it on a cool autumn night. - Wine Spectator
