Poseidon – 3rd Edition Douro Red 2015

60,00 incl. btw

An initiative of the Merchant Navy Officers Club and Lua Cheia Em Vinhas Velhas. It is the revival of a centuries old custom of a bygone era, when the producers of Madeira wine sent the barrels to India and the wine returned with some unique qualities.
