Pôpa Homenagem 2015

The history of Quinta do Pôpa began with the dream of Francisco Ferreira (known as Pôpa), the bastard son of a great Douro wine producer, and his maid, Joaquina Ferreira. A generation later, his son José Ferreira (Zeca do Pôpa) made it come true by buying part of Quinta do Vidiedo, located in Adorigo, a parish in the municipality of Tabuaço, in the heart of the Douro Wine Region. In honor of his father, he changed the name of the property to Quinta do Pôpa. In 2010 Stéphane and Vanessa Ferreira both set foot in the Douro, marking it with a new, more youthful and dynamic vision. Stéphane with his love for wine and great passion for music, praises a new approach to the traditional and elegant Douro wines. While respecting tradition, he is open to experimentation and gives rise to new wavy wines. Vanessa gave her feminine and artistic touch to the project. Dreamer and strongly rooted to her home in the Douro, she works the sustainability and wine tourism part with great passion, both in detail.
