Description

Casa Ferreirinha Vinha Grande Red 2020 is ruby red with purple tinges. The aroma is intense, predominantly redcurrant and plum, along with spice, resin and cedar, all very well integrated with subtle oak. It is a well-balanced wine with firm, well-textured tannins and bright, attractive acidity. Its finish is very long and harmonious.

This producer, founded in 1952, is named after the legendary Porto matriarch Dona Antónia Ferreira. She was affectionately nicknamed 'Ferreirinha' by her countrymen, and Casa Ferreirinha, the first producer in the region dedicated to making light wines, pays homage to her memory. Purchased by Sogrape in 1987, it has 520 hectares of vineyard in the Douro in all of its three sub-regions: Lower Corgo, Upper Corgo and Douro Superior. The winemaking is headed up by Luís Sottomayor.

Inky dark purple core and hue. Youthful nose offering violet, ripe dark fruit, blackberry, mild spice and lightly toasted oak. The palate is dense and well rounded with fine tannin, a fresh backbone with crushed dark berry flavours, sweet plum, tobacco and a long vivid finish.
