Quinta da Trovisca

Violet and wild dark fruit aromas; rich, bold palate with ripe blackberry, blueberry, blackcurrant, and a long, intense finish.

Producer Information

Quinta da Trovisca is a Port-focused estate in Portugal’s Douro Valley, near São João da Pesqueira, with a brand story rooted in the thunderous “rumbles” that sometimes echo around the vineyard. Its range centres on classic Port styles, including Ruby, Tawny, White, Rosé, LBV, Colheita and aged Tawny Ports.

The winery presents itself as combining the natural beauty of the Douro with a strong sustainability ethos, stating that it respects nature through sustainable farming methods. It also highlights wildlife and environmental protection as part of its identity, noting that a share of profits is donated to the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust.

Wine Making

Hand-harvested, sustainably grown grapes from owned and sourced vineyards. The vinification happens with totally destemmed grapes going through slow fermentation with temperature control up to 27 ºC. Before bottling, a gentle filtration happens to avoid major sediment.

Tasting Note

Violet and wild dark fruit aromas; rich, bold palate with ripe blackberry, blueberry, blackcurrant, and a long, intense finish.

Food Matching

Pair with rice dark chocolate and blue cheese.
