**The Quinta = A field of touriga nacional, tempranillo, tinta cao, souzao, tinta amarela planted in 2005.  One share entitles holder to 250 lb of a field blend of Quinta grapes in the proportions that they are harvested this year.  For example, if 40% of the total Quinta production is touriga, then 40% of each shareholder’s 250 lb allotment will be touriga.  Harvest will be on a Saturday to accommodate home winemakers, with date optimized around ripeness of the touriga nacional.  The Quinta has historically provided superb grapes for a port-style blend as well as dry red blend.
