Henriques & Henriques was founded by João Gonçalves Henriques in 1850 and is named for his two sons who took over the company on their father's demise. The last Henriques died childless in 1968 and the company passed to three of his friends, Alberto Nascimento Jardim, Peter Cossart (who made 53 vintages with the company) and Carlos Nunes Pereira. Henriques & Henriques is the only Madeira producer to own vineyards.

"Much less expressive on the nose than the Sercial 2001. Some nutty caramel. Then real power on the palate. Intense citrus and just a slight hint of date. So intense it is hard to taste the flavours separately – you just taste the whole. Deep apricot on the finish." Julia Harding tasting a different bottling of this wine
All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab.
Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
