Cockburn’s

Robert Cockburn founded the port house in his name nearly twenty years after establishing his wine business.
Cockburn’s has a pioneering history. It was one of the first companies to plant vineyards in the remote Douro Superior, it was instrumental in resurrecting the now iconic Touriga Nacional grape variety from obscurity and it revolutionised the port trade in 1969 when it invented Special Reserve, creating a whole new category.
