Description

This is a red wine produced from an almost century-old vineyard consisting of 25 different grape varieties. After fermentation in granite presses with foot treading, it ages for about 18 months in French oak barrels, displaying an unparalleled organoleptic sensation.

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.
