2017 Boa-Vista Reserva red

The grapes for the Reserva wines come from vines of different ages, altitudes and exposure to sun and reflect the diversity of this Quinta.

Elegant and refined, shows a ruby colour and a bouquet of spice and red fruit aromas with floral notes that build up in the glass. On the palate, its freshness expands, enhancing the fruit flavours and smooth but firm tannins, which confer great volume. A wine that is graceful, with plenty of sophistication.

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.
