Quinta da Devesa Vintage Port is an exceptional wine, produced from carefully selected grapes of the best plots, exclusively from the estate.
Deep purple color. Powerful aromas of ripe red fruits, floral cocoa, pepper, cassis and iodine. On the palate it’s dense, velvety and full bodied, with high quality ripe tannins, a well balanced acidity, which offers balance, harmony and elegance, that anticipate an ageing in bottle of superb quality. The finish is long, sweet, refreshing and gourmand.

On the Baixo Corgo sub region, and only 10m kms away from Peso da Régua Quinta da Devesa vineyard and winery are located on a promontory which overlooks the confluence of the rivers Douro and Corgo from where a wonderful sight can be enjoyed, covering the valleys of the rivers and mountains of the region.
Its 34 hectares, planted with the grape varieties recommended for the region, go from a quota of 60 m up to 500 m high, part facing south getting an excellent sun exposure, and part facing the buttresses of Marão where it receives natural cool winds This diversity of solar and wind exposure provides diferente levels of grape maturation and development, which allow to temporize harvesting in optimal conditions.
