A ruby red wine with a fascinating aroma with notes of cedar, fresh blueberries, and mint. It shows subtle touches of chocolate with wild berry aromas. It is a robust wine, but with elegance and soft tannins, very polished, with a very long finish

The future of Quinta da Gaivosa’s wines continues to be shaped in its vineyards. The Primeiros Anos represents one of those steps. Recently restructured, a whole set of judicious and innovative technical means was used, but with a deep respect for the teachings of the old vines and a desire to deepen their “terroir” more and more. These are its first fruits. The first promises of what the new vineyards of Gaivosa have in store for us for the future.
