Porto Ferreira Vintage Quinta Do Porto – 2017

£89.95 incl VAT + Delivery

Ferreira House releases its latest Vintage, Quinta do Porto Vintage 2015, from the emblematic Quinta do Porto, which was once the home of Dona Antonia Adelaide Ferreira. This most Portuguese of port houses is steeped in 250 years of tradition, and gained its current high reputation during the nineteenth century under the leadership of Dona Antonia Ferreira.

Like several important figures in the history of Champagne, she was widowed young, and took control of the family business with a gusto few of her male counterparts could match. The Douro benefited both viticulturally and socially from her various projects, and Ferreira remains blessed with a superb range of vineyard holdings from which to craft their range of full, elegant ports.
