Inserted in the purest landscape of the Alto Douro Vinhateiro, in Ervedosa do Douro, São João da Pesqueira, Quinta do Pessegueiro is distinguished by its extraordinary architecture. Owned by a French investor, Roger Zannier, the winery has distinct characteristics. The building has five levels where traditional methods of producing high quality wines are combined with the most sophisticated equipment designed to use natural gravity during the entire process that transforms grapes into wine. The use of pumps is totally excluded along the entire route, from the reception of the grapes to the barrel room.
Vinho Tinto is a blend of Touriga Nacional and other local grapes from old vines. It is a wonderful and complex red wine with beautiful color and concentration. The nose is characterized by mineral notes such as wet earth and rock under wonderful aromas of ripe red fruits, vanilla, dark chocolate, and hints of mint. In the mouth, it is rich, balsamic, with red and black fruits and well integrated wood. It has strong tannins and remarkable but balanced acidity.
Excellent with grilled red meat, lamb chops or aged cheese.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
