Good to Know: Domingos Alves de Sousa and his father Edmundo and grandfather had been winemakers in Duoro as a family tradition. Domingos, having graduated Civil Engineer, had first abandoned the tradition in 1987 as he carried out a model work of land consolidation and restructuring of the vineyard. The wine growing activity has evolved and become more interesting. A turning point in 1988, affected by recession, where wine growers were struggling. It required technical and professional training. Domingos then attended courses so he may learn the ways of viticulture and oenology which helped him restructure the vineyards to become his very own producer-bottler. He built a winery in Quita Gaivosa where he vinified the production from remaining farms.

Despite his newfound passion for table wines, Domingos's connection to Porto and expertise in producing Port wines remains steadfast. In the Quinta da Gaivosa winery, where he has conducted thorough research and experiments over the years, a number of exceptional Ports have been created. These endeavors have allowed him to explore and showcase the full potential of his family's vineyards across various categories of Port wines. Today, the legacy of the Alves de Sousa family continues to thrive, anchored in their deep roots in the shale lands of the Douro region.

The Alves de Sousa Quinta da Gaivosa Porto White 10 Year Old has the color of amber. This beverage is highly intricate, containing a rich blend of herbal, spicy, and citrusy notes, complemented by hints of maple syrup and almonds. Aged to perfection, it boasts a full-bodied and refined taste, with additional layers of marmalade, caramel, and dried fruit nuances.

Best paired with Blue cheeses (Roquefort, Stilton), apple and apricot desserts
