Croft's Quinta da Roêda

Croft is one of the most distinguished of all Port houses. Founded in 1588, it is the oldest firm still active today as a Port wine producer. The company is renowned for its Vintage Ports produced using time-honoured styles refined by skill and experience passed down through the generations.

Behind every great wine producer there is a renowned vineyard. The cornerstone of Croft’s distinctive house style is the famous Quinta da Roêda, described as the jewel of Port wine estates!  

Quinta da Roêda consists of an extensive terraced vineyard that sweeps the north bank of the Douro River, just above Pinhão. The wines of this magnificent property, which contains some of the oldest vineyards in the Douro Valley, are the heart of Croft’s Vintage Port blend.

Croft remains a family company, dedicated to the production of the finest Ports of all styles.  The company maintains a pioneering spirit, continuing to create innovative new styles such as Croft Pink, the first ever rosé Port.

For an authentic vineyard experience, visit Croft’s famous estate, Quinta da Roêda, in the heart of the Douro Valley.
