[dropcap]T[/dropcap]he 2015 SUDD Red Reserva Bairrada Wine won in the top category – the Grande Ouro medal that highlights the best wines of the year 2021. With grape varieties Baga (60%), Touriga Nacional (20%) and Aragonez (20%), it has a fruity flavor , soft and elegant, with notorious mouth volume and long persistence. It has a 9-month aging period in French oak barrels and at least 3 months after bottling.
The management of Frijobel Global, which owns the SUDD brand, says: “These awards confirm the quality of the SUDD brand wines, which will allow them to increase their notoriety and recognition. Having a wine awarded the Grande Ouro medal (distinction given to 35 wines, sparkling wines and liqueurs) is a huge satisfaction for all of us who intend to affirm a new brand concept in the wine sector”.
SUDD Wines stood out among the 1,400 Portuguese wines in the blind tasting competition, evaluated by a jury of 134 sector experts (national and international), including winemakers, sommeliers, journalists, wine educators, among others. In total, 419 wines were awarded: 35 Great Gold, 103 Gold and 281 Silver.
The Concurso Vinhos de Portugal has established itself as a reference event for the sector, which bets on the quality of national wines and on the promotion of the wine-producing reality in Portugal. Its 8th edition took place at the end of May and ended with an awards ceremony transmitted digitally from the Convento de Jesus, in Setúbal.
