Barca Velha Tinto

Description

“O Barca Velha – a name that speaks of tradition and excellence in the Douro since 1952. This wine is truly the embodiment of Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira’s (the “Ferreirinha-da-Régua”) vision and the legacy of Casa Ferreirinha. Crafted exclusively in exceptional vintages, it’s a full-bodied wine with remarkable longevity, showcasing the elegance of Touriga Nacional and Touriga Franca alongside Sousão, Tinto Cão and a touch of Tinta Roriz. Achieving 91 points from CellarTracker, it presents a complex tapestry of ripe red fruit, spice notes and a subtle hint of tobacco, firmly establishing its potential for aging beautifully. Perfect paired with robust red meats and intensely flavoured cheeses.”
