Slightly less dry (than Sercial), the Barbeito 10-Year-Old Verdelho has some slightly sweeter notes of dried apricots emerging amid the nuttiness; again this a lovely aperitif or with an aged Cheddar and home made chutney.Terry Kirby, The Independent (Nov 2018)

There is an attractive mix of flavours on the nose, a nutty dryness underpinned by richer apricot and sultana. The mid palate has power, sweetness and richness of fruit but towards the back walnuts appear lightening and giving an elegant twist to the finish.

Nutty, pronounced, beautifully balanced sweetness with a stealthy finish and a slight salty tang. Richard Hemming MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Jun 2012)

Barbeito

The Barbeito family Madeiras are almost unique in their total non use of caramel to colour the wines. The natural pale colour of theise great Madeiras gives an impression of their being light and perhaps less concentrated than others, but on tasting the wines this impression is quickly dispelled. They are brighter and more pure than most other producers but they have beautiful texture, wonderfully intensity and are immensely long.
