Quinta Da Gaivosa Tinto

Description

Produced only in years of exceptional quality, this red wine blends 20 indigenous Douro varieties, including Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, and Tinta Cão. It presents a deep ruby hue, with aromas of forest fruits, eucalyptus leaves, pine, and dried plums. On the palate it offers an excellent structure, balance, and elegance. It is a gastronomic wine with great ageing potential. Domingos Alves de Sousa brings his wines to life, following a family tradition started by his grandfather and now joined by his children. He vinifies exclusively the grapes from his own estates, truly unique terroirs. The quality and distinctiveness of his wines are widely recognized, with accolades and references in the most respected national and international publications. A special highlight is the award of “Producer of the Year” in 1999 and again in 2006 by Revista de Vinhos, making him the first to receive the most prestigious distinction for a Portuguese wine producer twice.
