Carvalhas represents the very best of what can be produced in this historical vineyard. Exuberant and powerful, at the same time showing complexity and elegance, this wine produced in limited quantities reveals concentration and depth, characteristic of the very low yield provided by the old vines. The northern exposition of the parcel, brings freshness and balance. Aromas of black and red fruit are evident, along with spices and herbal notes. A majestic wine with various layers of flavours and a long and memorable finish.

This unique and powerful Douro Red is recommended for special gastronomic occasions.

Quinta das Carvalhas is the most emblematic and spectacular property in the Douro Valley. Written references about this magnificent vineyard can be traced back to 1759, its old vines, of post-philoxera plantation, are reaching the respectful age of one century. Enjoying a prominent position on the left bank of the Douro River, in Pinhão, it covers the whole of the hillside facing the Douro river and occupies part of the slopes of the right bank of the tributary Torto River. Carvalhas’ old vines, the origin of this superb Douro red, are a post-phylloxera plantation, which have reached the respectful age of a century old. This old vineyard contains around 20 different indigenous grape varietals, grown in the Field Blend concept.
