When Manoel de Boullosa purchased Quinta dos Pesos in 1968, the wine Carcavelos wine region was already obscure and little known beyond Lisbon.  While M. de Bullosa continually crafted Carcavelos through his death in 2005, he put little effort into actually selling the wines. So over the year, cask after cask of wine from vintage after vintage rested quietly in the cellar, getting richer, deeper and more complex.  Until 2018 when importer Haus Alpenz and their partners discovered the riches hidden there. And began bottling small lots of Quinta dos Pesos Carcavelos from different casks each year.

This 1993 was one of the first Quinta dos Pesos Carcavelos wines we ever got to taste and it remains a favorite. While there’s certainly plenty of dried fruit and richness here, it shows terrific vigor and Seville orange bite and tang. And finishes long, savory and complete. Like all Carcavelos, think of this as offering the freshness of Madeira, the generosity of tawny Port, and a unique joy all its own.
