Casa Ferreirinha
Barca Velha 2015
Douro · Douro Superior
Portugal's benchmark dry red wine, celebrated for its deep ruby hue and an exceptionally complex bouquet of ripe red and black fruits, cedar, balsamic, and tobacco box that transitions into a full-bodied palate framed by vibrant acidity, firm yet velvety tannins, and an extraordinarily long, elegant finish.

Origin · Douro · Douro Superior
Douro Superior is the easternmost and hottest sub-region of the Douro Valley, extending to the Spanish border. Its hot, dry climate and lower rainfall produce powerful, concentrated wines, with schist and granite soils yielding both premium Port and increasingly acclaimed dry reds and whites from estates like Quinta do Vale Meão.
