The Ferreirinha farms are probably the most emblematic of the Douro. Among these, Quinta do Vale Meão has an enormous symbology, as it was a project conceived from scratch, as the farm was acquired on virgin land. In its own right, Quinta do Vale Meão is really one of the most interesting and coveted wines in Portugal. Deserved highlight for the quality that this wine offers in all the vintages in which it is released. The Quinta also produces a second wine, Meandro do Vale Meão, made from younger vines.

| Vinification | It is one of the last vines to be harvested. The grapes are trodden on foot in lagares, later transferred to vats, where fermentation takes place, for eight days. The stage lasts 16 months, in new and used barrels in a proportion of 10% and 90% respectively. |
| Test Results | Excellent ruby color. Intense and complex aroma with notes of ripe red fruits and well-integrated wood. In the mouth it is dense, with well-integrated tannins and sweet wood. Balanced acidity, the presence of fruit and wood make the wine elegant, long and very pleasant. |
| Gastronomy | Well-structured and flavor-rich meat and game dishes |
