Vintage Porto Quinta Do Vallado Portugal 2012 750ml
A full-bodied port, with deep and strong aromas of intense dark fruit. It has ripe and gripping tannins, excellent structure and complexity, with a very long finish.
Dona Antonia Adelaide Ferreira was an ancestor of the current owners of Quinta do Vallado. A remarkable woman, especially for her time (mid-to-late 1700s), she was one of the most powerful port producers in Portugal who built the Ferreira Port label into one of the best in the country. It also was one of the very few port houses owned by a Portuguese family (at that time, most were owned by British companies). It is on her land that Quinta do Vallado is situated. Adelaide Vintage Port was named in her honor.
