Quinta do Porto, the oldest property of Ferreira, is where this unique Vintage is born. Acquired by Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira in 1863, this vineyard has always been the birthplace of the brand’s finest wines, and this Vintage is no exception, being the pure expression of the excellence of the terroir where it originated.
Deep color of great intensity. Intense and complex aroma, with balsamic notes, heather, cedar, and resin, alongside red fruit, some tropical fruits, hints of ink, spices like pepper and cloves, and a slightly stony undertone. On the palate, it boasts excellent volume, high-quality tannins, vibrant acidity, notes of spices and resin, with a long and powerful finish.
After the harvest, the wines remained in the Douro. They were after transported to the wine cellars, in Vila Nova de Gaia, the following spring, where they were aged in the traditional manner in oak casks. During this period, the wines were subject to racking, testing and analysis to help monitor their development. The final blend was made further to a careful selection of the wines, in order to ensure the highest possible quality.
