Description

CARCAVELOS: AGED TAWNY RARITIES FROM LISBON'S SECRET COASTAL ZONE

Astounding value on aged tawny port-like styles from the obscure and rarely seen Carcavelos DO. It consists of only 25 hectares of vineyards and is one of four classic Portuguese fortified wines (or Vinhos Generosos), the others being Port, Madeira, and Moscatel de Setubal. This particular bottling by Quinta dos Pesos, is especially noteworthy because winemaking operations from this producer ceased in 2005 due to the untimely death of winemaker Manoel de Boullosa. The wines that had already been made by Mr. Boullosa were allowed to continue to sit in barrel and continue aging until 2018, when they were tasted, selected, and blended. - Meg Van Til
