Quinta do Ferro

Description / History

Quinta do Ferro er et familieprojekt drevet af Micaela Ferro. Vingården er placeret på højre bred af Douro-floden, i en underregion af Vinho Verde. Det er, hvad du vil kalde en rigtig bjergvingård.
I dag er Micaela topreferencen for mousserende vin i Vinho Verde-regionen. Hun har arbejdet utrætteligt siden 1999 i det bjergrige terræn for at producere de bedste vin til dig.

The main grape used in the sparkling wine of Quinta do Ferro is Avesso. It is similar to Alvarinho (Albariño) and produces wine of grapefruit and peach notes.
Other grapes used in the sparkling wines include Arinto (Portulgal’s finest white grape) and Vinhâo. They are all harder-to-ripen white grapes, why they work well in the sunny, mountanious sub-region.

The wines of Quinta do Ferro have received great reviews from some of the greatest critics of the world; Robert Parker and Sarah Ahmed.

If there is sparkling wine to try from Portugal, they come from Quinta do Ferro.
