1974 is a historical year for Portugal. It marks the end of the dictatorship and very few colheitas were produced in this year. This is an historical gem preserved in our cellar over 3 generations of Port wine makers. Produced by our grand parents in the traditionnal way, fermented in granite mills, it is a very special Port to celebrate a landmark.
