Gonçalves Faria Tinto

Description

“From the Gonçalves Faria estate, this Baga wine is a truly evocative journey back in time, showcasing the legacy of António Maria Gonçalves Faria – a name practically synonymous with Bairrada winemaking. The slow fermentation in open lagares, coupled with a 20-month aging in 2,500L oak barrels, delivers a remarkable complexity and depth. As Dirk Niepoort rightly observed, it’s a privilege to taste a wine that so beautifully honours the contribution of both father and son. Pairs wonderfully with roasted pork or earthy mushroom dishes.”
