Sisters Luísa and Maria Vieira
de Sousa have restored the family name and resurrected the
production of Port wines that was started 5 generations ago.
Vieira de Sousa had a good business selling their high-quality
grapes to Churchill’s and Taylor’s traditionally. There was a
hiatus after phylloxera hit the vineyards in the C19th that caused
a financial freeze-up that lasted over 100 years, most notably the
necessity of selling some of their vineyards and the family brand
name. It was in 2009 that Luisa, helped by her father Antonio,
decided to invest again in Port bottling and buy the family name
back. They realised they had enough reserve wines to
restart. Owning 5 farms comprising 60ha of vineyards, they
could provide the high-quality grapes to gear things up, and their
Cimo Corgo based Quinta homestead was ideally placed to process the
output. Viticulture in the Douro is always a struggle with no
easily deployed machinery, limited public services, low-yielding
old vines and hard-graft maintenance. Yet from this difficult
terrain, with a lot of work and dedication, they make beautiful
still wine and benchmark Ports which, whilst remaining rustic, have
a beautiful freshness, elegance and lower than usual levels of
residual sugar. From the same hardscrabble slopes come their still
wines showcasing the incredible quality of Portuguese wines in
recent years using native grapes such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga
Franca, Tinto Roriz, Rabigato, Viosinho and
Gouveio.
