About
The port wine shippers, the Bergqvist family, has owned Quinta de la Rosa since 1906 when it was given to Claire Feuerheerd by her English grandmother. Starting in the early 1990s, the family was one of the pioneers in producing high-quality dry red wines in the Douro Valley.
Today, Quinta de la Rosa develops around 55 hectares of vineyards and produces around 80,000 litres of port and 300,000 litres of wine each year.
Quinta de la Rosa Craft Beer came up in 2017 with the idea to adapt La Rosa’s wine equipment to see whether making the Douro’s first craft beer was possible. Today La Rosa IPA and La Rosa Lager are brewed at Quinta de la Rosa.
The winery is located within 15-20 walk or a quick taxi ride from Pinhão.
