However, Domingos Alves de Sousa initially pursued a different career. Having graduated in Civil Engineering, he couldn't resist the dual pull (of the land and his heritage), and abandoned his profession in 1987 to dedicate himself exclusively to managing the estates he inherited and others he subsequently acquired, where he has been carrying out exemplary work in land consolidation and vineyard restructuring.

But the problems that affected the sector at the end of the 1980s, which resulted in an exaggerated increase in production costs, and especially the catastrophic 1988 harvest, led him to question the profitability of his farms. And it was this questioning that marked the turning point. Like many other Douro winegrowers, affected by the recession in which the Demarcated Region was struggling, he turned to valuing the \"leftovers\" of Port wine, that is, the table wine of the Douro, until then traditionally considered secondary to fortified wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp id=\"text3\" class=\"margin_botton_20\"\u003eLike many other Douro winegrowers, affected by the recession that the Demarcated Region was struggling with, he turned to valuing the \"leftovers\" of Port wine, that is, the table wine of the Douro, which until then had traditionally been considered inferior to fortified wine.

He thus attended viticulture and oenology courses and, armed with this background, set to work restructuring his vineyards and, determined to forge his own path as a producer-bottler, built the winery on his Quinta da Gaivosa estate where he would henceforth vinify the production of the other estates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp id=\"text4\" class=\"margin_botton_20\"\u003eAfter experimenting with various grape varieties, he selected those that proved most suitable for producing the best Douro Designation of Origin wines, and with them he produced and launched on the market, in mid-1992, what would be his first wine: the Quinta do Vale da Raposa white 1991, which quickly captivated connoisseurs and earned the highest praise.

And it is on the left bank of the ancient Pinhão River that the \"Quinta do Estanho\" (Tin Estate) is located, known by the name of the mineral that once proliferated there.

When Jaime Cardoso returned from Brazil in the 1980s, after a long stay in that country, he had already decided to reacquire the estate and lead a project to renew and develop Douro and Port wines. And so he did. Little by little, with firmness, he built and consolidated it. The farm began producing wines for large, established, and reputable merchants. It then grew as a \"Producer-Bottler,\" as soon as the laws authorized that status. Finally, it became a \"Merchant.\" It is this journey of tenacity and permanent, essential connection to the Douro that his descendants intend to honor with this edition of special wines and with the desire to contribute to works or institutions of solidarity and humanity. Optimistic and determined, he made every effort on the farm, certain that there is no great farm without a united family. As a father, husband, and grandfather, he dedicated himself to his children and grandchildren, knowing that this was the safest haven. And he never stopped thinking about the Douro, where he came from and where he returned, with his conviction that belonging to a land, having a place and always returning to a location, even with adventures and travels in between, are traits of identity and character. His wife, Eleanor; his children Carlos, Sandra, Ana Lúcia, Fernando and Sara; and his grandchildren Afonso and Maria Inês, thus wish to remember the memory of the one who was at the beginning of everything, of this family and this farm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n","brand":"Garrafeira Grande Escolha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53188381933905,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/4122\/8625\/files\/estanho-gr-vvt.jpg?v=1772537201"},{"product_id":"herdade-da-rocha-grande-reserva-tinto-pack-3-garrafas","title":"Herdade da Rocha Grande Reserva Red Wine 3 Bottle Pack ","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-15272 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/garrafeiragrandeescolha.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/herdade_da_Rocha-logo-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Located in Crato, Portalegre, nestled against the slopes of the Serra de S.
