Quinta do Passadouro
Situated in the Douro Valley, sub-region Cima-Corgo, was founded in the XVIII th century. The property was acquired in 1991 by the Bohrmann Family. Since then new acquisition of surrounding land and important improvements have taken place in the 20 hectares of vineyards and 5 hectares of olive trees, continuing the old tradition of this vine growing estate, always looking for better quality and reputation of its wines.
In the 8 ha of old vineyards you find the usual wide range of mixed planted varieties. In the new ones Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Sousão are planted.
The rigorous selection of grapes in the vineyard and before crushing is one of the most important practices to ensure that only the best go into the lagares. The grapes are foot trodden in the lagares. This maceration permits an extraction of all the qualities of the grapes in an intense and delicate way.
The use of old chestnut barrels for the ports and French oak barriques for the wines allows a natural stabilisation and aging of our wines before bottling.
The combination of traditional methods with modern techniques allow the wines to express all the character and terroir of the Pinhão Valley: balanced, concentrated wines, full of black ripe fruit and wild flowers.

Também fiquei bem impressionado com o valor que gentes de outras latitudes dão ao que existe em Portugal e que muitos dos indigenas tanto desprezam. Desejo-lhes toda a riqueza do mundo que o D(ouro) contém. Nota: O texto ficava bem em português com opção para inglês, etc.
