Van Zellers' family is in wine business in Portugal since 1780. Nowadays they are represented by Cristiano Van Zeller, a classical gentleman farmer on his own merits. This last Friday I was happy to attend a tasting of some of their most recent Douro, Portugal, wine productions to come to market:
- VZ, 2012, White
- Van Zellers, 2010, Red
- VZ, 2011, Red
- Quinta Vale D. Maria, 2011, Red
- Vinha da Francisca, 2011, Red
- Vinho do Porto VZ, Tawny, 10 years, Port
All highly commendable. Notwithstanding, the Quinta Vale D. Maria, 2011, Red, stroke the right balance and won me the night.
