Quinta do Vallado, established in 1716, is one of the oldest and most famous estates in the Douro Valley.

It is located on the banks of the Corgo River, a tributary of the Douro River, right next to its mouth and close to the town of Peso da Régua.

It belonged to the legendary Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira and remains to this day in the hands of her descendants.

Aroma : Concentrated, with intense mature red fruit aromas, hints of violets and "esteva" (a local Portuguese resinous bush).

Taste : Good structure with matured round tannins and a long persistent finish.
