Description

Quinta do Banco Reserva red wine is produced from the Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Sousão grape varieties. Around 40% of the wine is aged in stainless steel vats and the remaining 60% in French and American oak barrels for 10 months. In tasting, the aromas of forest fruits and jam stand out in harmony with the toasted notes coming from the ageing in barrels. It finishes voluminous and soft, with persistence and balance.

The first references to Quinta das Cabanas date back to the 18th century, having been involved in the Companhia Geral da Agricultura das Vinhas do Alto Douro, where the 18th marker of the Pombaline Demarcations of 1756 was placed. Currently, the owning family has also acquired other properties, located in the Sub-Região do Baixo Corgo, totalling around 90 hectares with vineyards aged between 25 and 35 years, planted with indigenous grape varieties.
