Quinta Do Infantado Port Wine

Quinta do Infantado was founded in 1816 in the Cima Corgo sub-region of the Douro--considered its finest zone for both Port and dry wines--by the Portuguese crown heir D. Pedro IV, hence the name of the estate: “Infante” is Portuguese for "prince". The Roseira family has owned it since the end of the nineteenth century. Today, Infantado is run by third generation João Roseira (winemaker and vineyard manager) and other family members, who oversee family holdings of about forty-six hectares of vines. Quite interestingly, Infantado evolved over the last fifty years into the best kind of outlier and innovator in a wine region ruled for centuries by large-scale production and full-blown commerce.

Quinta do Infantado Quinta do Infantado has always been at the forefront of innovation in the very historic and conservative world of Port. They were among the first small wineries to start bottling their own wines on the estate in 1979 - and they are among the first to seriously implement organic farming in the area. Owned by the Roseira family since the beginning of the 19th century and located in the small Gontelho district - known for some of the absolute best fields for Port. The style is a bit atypical - they don't chase sweetness and extraction, but search for balance, structure and they are not afraid to give the wines an almost dry touch. This is Port with terroir, purity and a very wide range of gastronomic applications.
