Collection: Oboé Wines

Family business at Quinta do Cabeço on the left bank of the Douro, Cima Corgo, Tabuaço. Halfway up a hillside of traditional narrow terraces with extraordinary south-facing exposure. The soils are schist, fractured dark rock that forces vine roots 15–20 meters deep in search of moisture.

That extreme environment produces small, concentrated berries with thick skins and exceptional phenolic complexity. Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz are the Douro's great native varieties in one of the valley's most respected Cima Corgo addresses.

Fagote Reserva: 92 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. Oboé Superior: 93 points, Andreas Larsson MW, the world's best sommelier. These scores come from the land, not marketing.
