Madeira Wine Festival 2010/Sweet September
The malvasía wine is the noblest of the Madeira wines, known by the English as “Malmsey” for its sweetness and perfume.
This year the girls are wearing a “rural chic” costume, trying to recreate the dresses that the family ladies of high bourgeoisie used to wear while walking down their properties fashionably dressed during the hot sunny end of summer days.
At this specific set, in September, at the middle of the harvest, these girls weren´t the workers but the winery attracted everyone, inviting them for a couple of party days at the country side.
It is this same pretext that “Sweet September” intends to recreate, attracting the tourists and visitors in general, inviting them to taste our delicious Madeira Wine.
