Quinta do Vale da Raposa was in 1992 the stage for the debut of the Alves de Sousa family in the production of Douro wines with a red that soon caught the attention of wine lovers and international press. An example? Direct entrance to the prestigious list of the “30 Best Buys” in the whole world by famous UK journalist Oz Clarke. And this was only its beginning.

The release of “Grande Escolha” in the best years was complemented with a acclaimed collection of varietals, with a very special highlight for its Touriga Nacional (winner of the 1st great tasting of the grape, both in Portugal and Brazil) and Tinto Cão (only Excellency Award in the Douro from the Portuguese Wine Magazine in 2000). Today it comprises a complete line up of Douro wines (white, reds and a rosé) expressing the quality of the terroir of the Quinta do Vale da Raposa.
