White Port / Extra Dry
Quinta de la Rosa Extra Dry White
1815 - Dietrich Feueheerd arrives in Porto from Hamburg where his uncle was Mayor and surrendered the city to Napoleon. He lives with his family in Porto/Aveiro and starts trading in minerals and ports.
1906 - Quinta de la Rosa is bought for Claire (Sophia’s grandmother) by her English grandmother as a christening present.
1935 - The port shipping company, Feueheerd Bros, is sold to the Barros Family. Thankfully, La Rosa remains in family hands as it was Claire’s personal property. Grapes are sold to Sandeman and others.
1988 - Tim, together with his daughter, Sophia, relaunches Quinta de la Rosa. La Rosa starts making port under its own label again and soon after is one of the first Quintas to produce wine.
2005 - Tim fulfils ambition of owning a Quinta in the Douro Superior by buying Quinta das Bandeiras. The Passagem brand is launched.

The first pressings of the grapes are run off and used in our white wines. When the pH starts to rise, the last approximately 10% of the juice is drawn off into stainless steel vats, to be made into white port, stopping the fermentation by adding brandy. The Extra Dry White Port is blended from stocks held at La Rosa and is aged in large ‘tonels’ for an average of 2-3 years.

Manoella Extra Dry White 10 years old
Sandra Tavares da Silva and Jorge Serôdio Borges began their adventure in 2001. In the beginning, the young couple had no vineyards and no wine, but they shared a dream, a personal project to which they have devoted themselves body and soul.
The name Wine & Soul is the product of their passion and total commitment to wine. From the start, this company’s work has focused on a tireless search for exceptional vines in the Pinhão Valley – the historic heart of great Port wines – to give them a voice.

It is a blend of Extra Dry White Ports sourced from old vineyards at high altitude with a field blend of Viosinho, Rabigato, Códega do Larinho and Gouveio. The fermentation occurred in granite lagares with foot treading and after that was matured and aged in seasoned old casks of 630 liters for approximately 10 years at Quinta da Manoella Lodge.
