Trovisca by Quevedo: A Distinctive Expression of Douro Valley Terroir
Trovisca is a distinguished port wine label produced by the Quevedo family, renowned for their deep-rooted history in the Douro Valley's winemaking tradition. The Trovisca range showcases the unique characteristics of the Quinta da Trovisca estate, situated on the hills above the Douro River. This estate benefits from a combination of schist soils and a Mediterranean climate, providing ideal conditions for cultivating traditional Portuguese grape varieties.
Under the guidance of winemaker Cláudia Quevedo, the Trovisca line emphasizes sustainable viticulture and meticulous winemaking practices. The wines are crafted from indigenous grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Sousão, reflecting the rich diversity of the region.
The Trovisca portfolio includes several notable offerings:
Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Ports: These wines are produced from a single vintage and aged for four years in seasoned vats. The result is a port with a soft yet deep and complex character, boasting excellent aging potential.
10-Year-Old Tawny Port: This tawny port is crafted by blending a selection of the cellar's best aged ports, averaging 10 years. Aged in old neutral wood casks, it offers a smooth, rich, and complex profile with notes of nuts, spices, and dried fruits.
Reserve Ruby Port: This vibrant, full-bodied red port is known for its rich, fruity flavors and deep ruby color. Made from a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties, it features notes of dark berries, plum, and a touch of spice.
Trovisca by Quevedo represents a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, offering port wines that capture the essence of the Douro Valley's terroir. Each bottle reflects the family's commitment to quality and their passion for producing exceptional wines.
