Quinta Das Bágeiras Garrafeira Tinto

Description

The Quinta das Bágeiras wine is made from the Baga grape, with the fruit sourced from vines that are over 90 years old. It is produced only in exceptional vintages, capturing the authentic expression of the Bairrada region. This red wine features a solid structure, powerful tannins, refreshing acidity, and complex flavours, making it ideally suited for bottle ageing. The name Mário Sérgio Alves Nuno may not ring a bell for the casual reader, but he is the great mentor behind the estate’s outstanding wines. The estate’s story dates back to three generations, yet it was only in 1989, under Mário Sérgio’s leadership, that Quinta das Bágeiras began bottling and selling its wines, quickly becoming a benchmark for Bairrada and Portuguese wines. While crafted using the traditions of earlier generations, the Quinta das Bágeiras wines are never faddish—they’re always in style, revealing, with each harvest, the character of the region and the people who produce them.
