Quinta de Honor?
Anyone heard of or tried "Quinta de Honor" ? There's an aged tawny and a 97 in a shop near me, but it appears to be an unknown here on TPF.

Port wine should perhaps be added -- A Trollope

Only makes it more of a mystery -- we've no tasting reports for Qd Heredias (Hd) either.

I've tasted some Heredias ports from the late 90's / early 00's but was never blown away by their quality. Apparently a sister brand of Senhora do Convento (according to Mayson's Port and the Douro), although that has recently been bought by Canadians of Inniskilin fame, and there doesn't seem to be any recent mention of Heredias as port or wine producer, only an agroturismo, so perhaps the brand is mothballed? Hopefully others will know more?
