5th Place in the PORTraits Feature Organized by ForTheLoveOfPort
Roy Hersh in the ForTheLoveOfPort web has recently promoted a feature called PORTraits. With the aim to create a compendium of Porto, Madeira and Douro pictures, the feature was free open to all who want to share their little treasures. The challenge finished mid December and the winners were announced in Roy’s newletter of January, issued early this week.
There are over 850 pictures in the photobase, some definitively very impressive. Take a look, it is worth. I was lucky to win the 5th place with a photo taken during a treading of grapes in Quinta das Aranhas. Ah, and I will also get a nice baseball cap with a bottle o Port and a ForTheLoveOfPort inscription.
Thank you ForTheLoveOfPort!

Quevedo was founded in 1991 as a family owned business in the heart of the Douro valley, responding to the needs of the generations that preceded the associate founders. These ancestors were passionately dedicated to their vineyards and to the culture that surrounded the production of wine. Consequently, the company was created as a seamless marriage between the initial phase of production and the promotion and selling of their wines. Currently, the estate is comprised of 100 hectares located in the regions of Cima-Corgo and Douro Superior, producing both red and port wines from only the five traditional port grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão and Tinta Barroca.
