Júlio Bastos Dona Maria Reserva Tinto

Description

Located in the Portuguese Alentejo region, Quinta de Dona Maria is renowned for its 18th‑century palace, which not only serves as a historic landmark but also has been linked to wine production for over 150 years. In 1988, under the ownership of Júlio Bastos, the wines from this estate began to be marketed nationally and internationally, earning recognition from both the general public and wine critics. Though the old winery has been restored, expanded, and modernised, the 19th‑century marble vats—central to the vinification of these quality wines—remain in use. (illustrative image)
