Alves de Sousa Abandonado Magnum 2013

93 pts Robert Parker - Deep ruby colour. Great aromatic complexity and freshness, with quite unique (but typical from the Abandonado vineyard) balsamic and tar flavours, liquorice and black berries. Pure refinement, with delicacy, minerality and an extraordinary purity of fruit. It feels the schist, the surrounding forest, the freshness of the altitude, in a pure expression of the vineyard's nature. An exercise of pure elegance and class of one of the most iconic vineyards of the Douro and Portugal.

Domingos Alves de Sousa dá vida aos seus vinhos, seguindo uma tradição familiar iniciada pelo seu avô e à qual hoje se juntam também os seus filhos. Vinificando exclusivamente as uvas das suas Quintas, terroirs verdadeiramente únicos, a qualidade e a singularidade dos seus vinhos são amplamente reconhecidas, com distinções e referências nas mais respeitadas publicações nacionais e internacionais. Com destaque especial para a atribuição do prémio "Produtor do ano" em 1999 e novamente em 2006 pela Revista de Vinhos, tornando-se o primeiro a receber por duas vezes a mais importante distinção para um produtor de vinhos em Portugal.
