Barbeito - Innovative spirit in the Madeira tradition

Vinhos Barbeitois one of the most dynamic and quality-conscious producers in Madeira. Founded in 1946 by Mario Barbeito, the family business is now run by the third generation, Ricardo Diogo, and combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovations.

Barbeito does not have its own vineyards, but sources grapes from selected plots in Madeira's best locations. This allows for exceptional flexibility in the winemaking process. The company specialises in:

Single-varietal Madeiras (rare grape varieties such as Terrantez or Bastardo)
Vintage madeiras (colheitas and frasqueiras of great complexity)
Small batches with individual characteristics

Barbeito has become particularly well known through the revitalisation of historical grape varieties and the production of exceptional "Vinho da Roda" wines, which are matured on ships using traditional methods. The Barbeito Reservas and Extra Dry white Madeiras set new standards in the industry.

The company focuses on gentle vinification and natural stabilisation without excessive heating. The wines are characterised by their freshness, mineral precision and exceptional longevity.

With its bold concept, Barbeito has established itself as a creative alternative to the big Madeira houses. The wines are appreciated by connoisseurs worldwide and are regularly honoured with international awards.
