Starting up a new Madeira company

We will be visiting here on the 2015 Fortification Tour; we were going to do this during the 2014 Madeirathon, but we pretty much had a full agenda already.

This year .. for sure.

There are still lots of people who are not even aware that there is a brand new producer on the island. [shrug.gif]

Is this the first time you've heard of this company? What do you think the #1 challenge they face will be (outside of NOT having old stocks of wine)?

Hi Roy,

Happy new year!

I'm looking forward reading your opinion on Madeira Vintners. It's a really ambitious project that Paulo Mendes has started, with focus on quality and close collaboration with the farmers. I've written a handful of posts about MV last year and am really excited to follow Paulo. He's most dedicated to Madeira and you have to love the guy for bringing back ListrĂ£o and Caracol on the Madeira scene!

All the best,
Niklas
