Quinta Da Gaivosa Tinto

Description

Produced only in years of exceptional quality, this is a red wine that brings together 20 indigenous Douro grape varieties, including Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, and Tinto Cão. It presents a deep ruby color, with aromas of forest fruits, eucalyptus leaves, pine, and dried plums. On the palate it reveals an excellent structure, balance, and elegance. It is a gastronomic wine with great aging potential. Domingos Alves de Sousa gives life to his wines, following a family tradition started by his grandfather and now joined by his children. By vinifying exclusively grapes from his own estates—truly unique terroirs—the quality and singularity of his wines are widely recognized, with distinctions and references in the most respected national and international publications. Notably, he received the “Producer of the Year” award in 1999 and again in 2006 from Revista de Vinhos, becoming the first to receive the most important distinction for a Portuguese wine producer twice.
