Description
It all started in 1918, when Manoel Domingues Poças Júnior, born in the center of the hustle and bustle of Port Wine, decided to found his own business.
It was August 15th, just a few months before the Armistice. Manoel Poças was 30 years old and had some work experience in the area. With his uncle, he founded a company to sell brandies to large Port wine producers. Shortly afterwards, it established the headquarters that it remains today, in Vila Nova de Gaia.
First his uncle, then his brothers, his wife, his grandchildren: the entire Poças family came to share his passion for wine, combining respect for tradition with an open mind to the innovation brought by new generations.
Today, with three farms in the best locations in the Douro Demarcated Region, Poças has total control of the quality of its wines. And family involvement is stronger than ever.
