Quinta Das Bágeiras Garrafeira Tinto

Description

Quinta das Bágeiras Garrafeira is made from the Baga grape, sourced from vines that are over 90 years old. It is produced only in exceptional years and showcases the authentic expression of the Bairrada region. This red wine has a solid structure, powerful tannins, great freshness, and complexity, revealing the ideal traits for bottle ageing. The name Mário Sérgio Alves Nuno may not ring a bell for the distracted, but he is the great mentor behind the flagship wines of Quinta das Bágeiras. The estate’s story dates back to the work of three generations, yet it was only in 1989, under Mário Sérgio’s guidance, that the wines began to be bottled and sold, quickly becoming a benchmark for Bairrada and Portuguese wines. Although crafted following the traditions of previous generations, Quinta das Bágeiras’ wines are never fad-driven; they remain ever‑in‑fashion, each vintage revealing the region’s character and the people who produce them.
