Vintage Port: Quinta do Pôpa 2017
This is a tribute to José Ferreira (Zeca do Pôpa), father of Stéphane and Vanessa (known as the grandchildren of Pôpa): “our father was "the man who fulfilled the dream; who encouraged the creation of a legacy, that passed from son (of Pôpa) to grandchildren (of Pôpa) and that, surely, will pass to our children (great grandchildren of Pôpa)" say the two brothers. After 10 years, and after defining the profile of the Pôpa signature wines, it is time to move forward with the launch of this Port of Quinta do Pôpa - ”and to be, let it be a Vintage. "
Vinification Crushing took place in the “lagar,” stone toughs where grapes are foot crushed and carried out in the traditional foot treading technique. Fortification took place in the lagar.
Varieties: Traditional Douro Varietals From Old Vines: Field Blend
Tasting Notes A balanced and fresh vintage with excellent structure, intense fruit, expressive and very pure. The year offers tannins that are among the most refined ever. Rich black currant fruits are massively supported by the ripe tannins. A balanced and powerful wine.
