"The iconic 2013 Fojo (Quinta Do Fojo) is a blend of old vines (planted in the late 19th century) aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels."

Robert Parker - Mark Squires 2015 

"Although the wine in vogue lately is undoubtedly Fojo, a wine from the Serôdio Borges family, from a 70-year-old vineyard of that name in the Pinhão region, which had produced a few ports for Churchill's house, and since 1996 has produced what some have called "the Pingus of Portugal." Without a doubt, the Douro is one of the most dynamic regions with the most potential in the country. "
