Quinta Do Ferro
Vinho Verde, Portugal
NV Quinta do Ferro White Sparkling Seco
Bright citrine color. Lively bubbles right up front, with notes of citrus, pear, guava, and yellow apple. Nice minerality on the palate, with a creamy mouthfeel. Very refreshing.
Quinta do Ferro is a small family owned winery, with daughter Micaela Fonseca taking over in 2011. The winery and vineyards are located in Vinho Verde along the Douro river near the border to the Douro valley. This special region, known as “Douro Verde” offers the best of both worlds. By utilizing an Integrated Production system (preventative practices rather than spraying) Quinta do Ferro produces its still and sparkling wines sustainably and as naturally as possible.
It is the first winery in Vinho Verde to release sparkling wines, and one of only a few to produce a red sparkler.
Quinta Da Devesa
Douro D.O.C., Portugal
2022 Quinta da Devesa Vinho Branco (White)
Aromas of tropical fruit, white flower and lime. The palate is fresh and fruit forward, medium bodied with a balanced refreshing acidity and persistent finish. Made with varietals, unique to Portugal; Gouveio, Viosinho, Malvasia Fina and Fernão Pires.
Owned by the Fortunato family, Quinta da Devesa is a small 34 hectare winery in the Cima Corgo sub region of the Douro Valley. The winery has been dedicated to the production of Douro and Port wine since 1941.
The vineyards are managed under a minimum intervention system known as “Integrated Production,” focusing on prevention of pests and disease rather than spraying once infected. This way, the vineyards provide a healthy habitat for birds, reptiles and mammals, ensuring adequate biodiversity and a balanced, sustainable environment.
Kaapzicht Vineyards
Bottelary, Stellenbosch, South Africa
2020 Kaapzicht Kaleidoscope Red, Bottelary Hills

The name “Kaapzicht” (Cape View) comes from the fantastic view this winery has over Cape Town and Table Mountain. Since the first vintage was bottled in 1984, Kaapzicht has become highly respected for both quality and value, having earned a multitude of local and international awards. The Steytler Family has been running their 190 hectare large estate hands-on for four generations.
