Tratado theorico e pratico da agricultura das vinhas, da extracção do mosto, bondade, e conservação dos vinhos, e da distillação das agoas ardentes.
by GYRÃO, Antonio Lobo de Barbosa Ferreira Teixeira (Visconde de Vilarinho de São Romão)
- Used
239, LVIII pp., (4) ff., 1 folding plan giving calculations for the sizes of casks & 3 folding engraved plates showing distillation apparatuses. The work covers such matters as the cultivation of vines, precautions against natural phenomena and disease, wine making, the economics of wine production, methods of fermentation and wine production outside Portugal. In the prologue (p. 3) the author promotes the export of wine in Europe and America. The status of the Companhia Geral da Agricultura das Vinhas do Alto Douro (the Douro Winegrowers' Company) had caused controversy since the signing in 1810 of a Treaty of Commerce between Portugal and Great Britain. The latter pressed for its abolition or at least radical changes in its Articles, and many Portuguese liberals believed it to be a monopoly which denied rights to others in the wine trade; a Decree was issued on 21 May 1822 introducing reforms through which the company lost many of its old privileges. Innocêncio I, 184 & XX, 244. (Cf. Simon, Bibl. Vinaria (1979 ed.)).
