Quinta da Lagoalva Launches Top-Tier Wine in Large Formats
18/12/2024Quinta da Lagoalva, one of the oldest and most emblematic estates in Ribatejo, located on the banks of the Tagus River, has launched its top-tier wine – the Dona Isabel Juliana Grande Reserva tinto 2021 – in large formats. This estate, owned by the Holstein Campilho family since 1193, is one of the pioneers in Portugal in launching a single-varietal Syrah wine and in betting on Sauvignon Blanc.
The Dona Isabel Juliana Grande Reserva tinto 2021, previously available in the standard format, now debuts in the imposing magnum (1.5L) and salmanazar (9L) bottles. This wine, recognized by national and international critics, reinforces its prestige with a positioning that combines quality and visual impact, ideal for celebratory moments.
Produced from Alfrocheiro, Touriga Franca, and Touriga Nacional grapes in balanced proportions, the wine reflects the rigor and dedication of Quinta da Lagoalva. After an initial maceration, alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, and malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels, the 14-month aging process gives it a complex aroma of dark fruits, chocolate, and vanilla, accompanied by elegant tannins and a long, persistent finish.
The large formats of this wine are ideal for festive gatherings, being not only a striking choice for Christmas tables but also an opportunity for creative reuse, transforming the bottles into decorative objects. Additionally, Quinta da Lagoalva offers other wines in magnum bottles, such as the Grande Reserva Alfrocheiro and Syrah and the Lagoalva Reserva white and red, consolidating itself as a reference among the Wines of Tejo.
Available in restaurants, wine shops, and at the Quinta da Lagoalva’s physical and online store.
