"Ferreira Dona Antónia has a beautiful red colour, with intense tawny shades that recall its slow maturation in wood. Its bouquet is intense and rich with hints of very ripe fruit (plum, apricot, and marmalade) and floral notes. Complex, its spice and dry fruit notes derive from the evolution in oak wood, through oxidation. In the mouth, it is a full-bodied and rich-flavoured wine, extremely well-balanced, that combines elegance with a delicate yet persistent finish. Ferreira Dona Antónia is a most versatile Porto wine. It is very good served on its own, accompanying some selected entrées, or as dessert wine. It also beautifully accompanies most sweets, dessertsm and cheeses. Serve slightly cold for fuller appreciation." —importer

"Bright and juicy, offering red plum, dark currant and wild cherry flavors, with fruitcake notes. This is full of fresh acidity, presenting a finish of dried mint, dark chocolate and anise. Drink now. 27,600 cases made." —Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator
"Tawny brick color. Aromas of walnut, raisin, smoke, minerals and exotic fruits. Very sweet, lush and thick in the mouth, with complex flavors of currant, orange peel and maple syrup. Sweet finish dominated by walnut and hazelnut notes. Delicious, and great value." —Stephen Tanzer, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
