- The Wine: This wine is a tribute paid by the grandchildren of Comendador Delfim Ferreira, who have prepared it with particular care in both the harvesting of the grapes and the entire winemaking process itself. They have dedicated it to their grandfather, a character that still provides them with inspiration today and is worthy of such continued homage.
