Producer
For more than 165 years this landmark wine from the southwestern coast of Portugal has been enjoyed by discerning wine drinkers and Periquita continues to be an international ambassador for fine Portuguese wines. Created by Jose Maria da Fonseca in 1850 Periquita is made from the Castelao (KAYstaylao) grape an indigenous variety that thrives in southern Portugal and has become nearly synonymous with the highly regarded wines of this historic producer.
