Claudia’s Wine
Cláudia is the name of our winemaker at Quevedo. Claudia’s is a complex and rich red wine, made with hand-picked grapes from vineyards located in Quinta Vale d’Agodinho, Ferradosa area, around 200 meters above the sea level. Because of its volume and concentration, you may need to open in advance in order to fully appreciate this wine. This is the wine Claudia likes to share with her friends and this is her message to you:
Watching out this wine, you might be scratching your head wondering what it tastes like? Fair question. If you know my little brother’s wine, “Oscar’s”, this is simply a more mature version. As the winemaker, I wanted to craft a even richer, fuller and more complex wine, a wine for long leisurely evenings among friends. After drinking it, take a moment and let us know your thoughts!
Cláudia
Quevedo was founded in 1991 as a family owned business in the heart of the Douro valley, responding to the needs of the generations that preceded the associate founders. These ancestors were passionately dedicated to their vineyards and to the culture that surrounded the production of wine. Consequently, the company was created as a seamless marriage between the initial phase of production and the promotion and selling of their wines. Currently, the estate is comprised of 100 hectares located in the regions of Cima-Corgo and Douro Superior, producing both red and port wines from only the five traditional port grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão and Tinta Barroca.
