Excellent wine tasting trip
It is posted as half day, buy be prepared for longer. We were collected from our hotel at 09.00, by our driver, the lovely Ruben. We collected our fellow imbibers and set off for the vineyard at the North of the island. A lovely guide (Sheena?) greeted us & we walked though the terraced vines, stopping for information en route. Then, back to the lovely hall for the all-important tasting. We were presented with 6 wines: 3 whites, 1 rose & 2 reds. All good, then we were left to chat and finish the...read more

Not just wine tasting!
As well as the Madeira wine tasting, it included a couple of stops at viewpoints in the countryside, and explained how the grapes were grown, and a short explanation of the history of Madeira wine. This made it a really interesting experience. Very good guide. Recommended.

The best way to get to know the Madeira wine!
Together with my girlfriend I've traveled through Madeira for a month. We heard the best stories from our parents about the Madeira Wine, so of course we had to try it! Our guide was very friendly and he knew everything about the island and the Madeira Wine. Before the tasting we headed to a beautiful viewpoint where he told us more about the region and the vineyards. After that we had an amazing tasting at Henriques & Henriques and tasted 7 different kind of Madeira Wines. We loved this tour an...read more
