Wine Advocate, April 2024


The approachable, balanced and fresh red 2021 Meandro do Vale Meão showed the cooler year, coming through as elegant, fresh and long—a wine with tension, lots of fruit and more complexity and depth than what you expect in the price range. They have been harvesting earlier, doing less extraction and using 100% used barrels, some larger ones and even some oak vats, so the wine is more polished, graceful and balanced.

About QUINTA DO VALE MEÃO

QUINTA DO VALE MEÃO

While Quinta do Vale Meão only began bottling under its own label in 1999, the estate has an incredible history dating back to 1877. The fruit from this estate has informed some of Portugal’ s most famous wines and that tradition continues today. The old cellar has been completely renovated, creating a judicious balance between old and new to produce wines that the Wine Advocate considers to be among the “Douro's finest”.
