QUINTA DAS BÁGEIRAS FOGUEIRA 2004 RED A cult wine from Bairrada, rare and deeply linked to the tradition of the Baga grape variety, Quinta das Bágeiras Fogueira 2004 represents the authentic vision of Mário Sérgio Alves Nuno, one of the most respected names in Portuguese oenology. Produced only in exceptional vintages, it is a wine with a strong personality, created to defy time and thrill true connoisseurs. From vineyards planted in the emblematic clay-limestone soils of Bairrada, this red wine is made using traditional methods, with fermentation in small lagares (traditional stone vats), without destemming, following a philosophy of minimal intervention. Aging in seasoned wooden barrels and bottling without fining or filtering preserve all the identity and authenticity of the wine. In the glass, it reveals an evolved and elegant color. The aroma highlights notes of dried fruit, cedar, spices and delicate smoky hints. On the palate, it is ample, structured and intense, with firm tannins, vibrant acidity and remarkable persistence, highlighting the extraordinary aging potential of the Baga grape variety. It is a wine that is simultaneously energetic, challenging and profoundly distinctive. With 14% alcohol by volume and produced exclusively from the Baga grape variety, Fogueira 2004 has become a benchmark among great Portuguese wines, having received a score of 95 points from Robert Parker, international recognition that reinforces its status as an exceptional wine. More than a wine, Quinta das Bágeiras Fogueira 2004 is a pure expression of Bairrada, its history, its terroir and the passion of a family that for generations has transformed tradition into excellence.
