Quevedo Bravo Tinto 2024

The Quevedo Bravo Organic Red 2024 opens with a fresh and floral aroma dominated by violets, immediately followed by vibrant red fruit such as raspberry, cherry, and red plum. A subtle hint of black pepper adds a refined layer to this. On the palate, it is all about elegance and a silky smooth mouthfeel; the wine is exceptionally supple and finishes with a refreshing, pleasantly spicy aftertaste. Tip: Serve the wine slightly chilled!

This organic red wine is made by winemaker Mariana Rosária. The Tinta Barroca, Touriga Franca, and a field blend of other indigenous grape varieties are destemmed after harvesting. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks using natural yeasts, where the juice is pumped very gently over the skins to prevent astringent flavors and instead extract the soft, supple characteristics of the grape. After this the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation, which rounds the acidity slightly, resulting in a fine, fresh yet soft red wine.

The vineyards of Quinta da Trovisca are situated at a considerable altitude of 450 to 500 meters in the Douro Valley. The combination of this high altitude and the slate soil gives the grapes their concentrated fruit character, while retaining a striking freshness. To optimally preserve the pure, fruity taste, the wine subsequently rests in stainless steel tanks for 18 months.
