2010 Quinta de la Rosa, Douro, Portugal, Douro DOC
Quinta de la Rosa has been in the Bergqvist family since 1906, although they have been in the port trade as shippers under the family name, Feueheerd since 1815. Nowadays the domain is run by Sophia Berqvist. It currently has around 55 hectares under vine and produces around 50,000 litres of port and 160,000 litres of wine each year.
Quinta de la Rosa was given as a christening present for Claire Feueheerd, Sophia's grandmother, in 1906. The family port shipping company, Feueheerd, was sold in the 1930s but La Rosa was kept and run by Sophia's grandmother, Claire. In 1988 Sophia and her father, Tim Bergqvist, decided to restart the family business and launched Quinta de la Rosa as a top quality port producer onto the market place.
Quinta de la Rosa is situated in Northern Portugal, 100kms inland from Oporto. It is set in the heart of the Alto Douro, A-grade, port growing area and is located along the banks of the river, near Pinhão.
