    Medium bodied and smooth red from the Douro Valley

    It has a deep ruby-red hue and an intense bouquet, with a prevalence of rock-rose floral notes, as well as ripe red fruits, like plum and strawberry. There are also notes of cedar, as well as of spices, a characteristic of the years of careful maturation, with delicate complexity arising out of discreet and well-integrated oak ageing. The palate also reveals ripe red fruits and has elegant body, well-integrated acidity, and fine-quality tannins, with a balanced, harmonious and extended finish.

    • Blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca
    • Approximately 25% of the blend matured for about 12 months in used French oak barrels
    • Revista de Vinhos | 85 Pts
    Cellaring: Drink now to 2028
    Food Pairing: The wine is delicious with charcuterie, pork sausages or roast chicken | 🌡️ Serve at a temperature around 14°C and 16°C


    STORY BEHIND THE LABEL 

    Casa Ferreirinha represents the pinnacle of Portuguese winemaking, rooted in the 19th-century work of the legendary Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira. Affectionately known by locals as "Ferreirinha," she was a visionary who not only expanded the estate's terraced vineyards but also transformed the Douro region by investing in schools and hospitals for her community. This legacy of excellence continues today under the stewardship of the Sogrape Vinhos family, who maintain the estate’s deep connection to the land and its people.

    The estate benefits from the rugged schist soils and mountain-protected climate of the UNESCO-listed Douro Valley, a terroir that produces wines with unmatched aging potential. By combining this exceptional environment with centuries of know-how, Casa Ferreirinha remains defined by a deep respect for its heritage.
