Quinta Do Poço Do Lobo Tinto

Description

Poço do Lobo Tinto 1987 is a historic red wine from Portugal’s Bairrada region, produced by Caves São João. This vintage reflects an old harvest that showcases Bairrada’s remarkable aging potential, especially wines from Quinta do Poço do Lobo, a property Caves São João acquired in 1971. It is typically a blend of traditional Bairrada varieties such as Baga, Castelão, and sometimes Moreto, grown on clay‑limestone soils under an Atlantic climate. Winemaking followed the traditional techniques of the era, aiming for a robust, structured wine that can age for many years; its extended bottle aging in the cellar has allowed it to develop unique tertiary complexity.
