Quinta do Pôpa
Steep family wine from the Douro Valley.
In the middle of the last century, Pôpa dreamed of owning his own winery in the Douro Valley. His son dedicated the Quinta do Pôpa to him and, together with his children, he produces top-quality wines on steep slopes.
Family history to drink: Grandfather Pôpa's lifelong dream was to have his own winery in the Douro Valley. His descendants are making this dream come true.
The young Pôpa worked in the vineyards of the Douro Valley in the oldest protected wine-growing region in the world. The proud man was passionately convinced of the quality and uniqueness of the wines. Pôpa dreamed of owning his own winery. It was only after his death that this dream came true and in 2003 his son Zeca bought the first 9 hectares of vineyards in the Douro Valley: these included renowned but also new locations. Together with his children Vanessa and Stéphane and the winemaker and king of the Baga grape, Luis Pato, he built the Quinta do Pôpa winery in honour of his father. In 2010 he handed it over to the capable hands of his children, who look after the family legacy with care and devotion.
No additives in the vineyard or cellar.
For Stéphane Ferreira, the naturalness of the wines is the most important thing. In the vineyard, no herbicides or pesticides containing heavy metals are used. In the next step, winemaking, cultured yeasts for fermentation or filter aids cultivated in the wine cellar are taboo.
From the grape to the bottle, nothing to hide.
No other winemaker has invited us to his winery as often as Stéphane. It is important to him that his partners and customers can visit the production facility at any time and understand the dedication and care he puts into making his wines. This man has nothing to hide.
