A deep ruby-red colour. Prevailing notes of berries on the nose, with hints of bergamot and notes of menthol which confer a heady freshness to the wine. Everything is harmonious in the mouth: silky tannins meandering through rich fruity flavours and spicy notes of wood against a background of impeccable acidity. A manifold wine that unravels its multiple layers during tasting.

The story

Quinta da Boavista has been recognized since the first demarcation of the Douro wine region, dated 1756. The presence of Quinta da Boavista is also documented in the famous 19th-century maps of Joseph James Forrester.
During the 20th century, the estate went through challenging periods, having been in the hands of several owners who brought their knowledge and experience to the viticultural production of Boavista wines.
Located in the sub-region of Cima-Corgo, near Pinhão, on the right bank of the Douro, and with one of the best views over the river, Quinta da Boavista has 36 hectares of high-quality vineyards, which some of that hectares are old vines planted with the native varieties.
In 2020, the estate was acquired by the Sogevinus Group, one of the largest wine groups in the Douro, continuing to progress to national and international success.
