Porto Messias 10 Anos 750 ml: version 1
Saved 2026-09-14 12:51 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Porto Messias 10 Anos 750 ml** (EAN 5601292175015), a ten-year-old tawny Port from the wanted queue, plus stubs brand/messias, company/caves-messias, family/porto-messias, ingredient/wine-spirit and ingredient/sulphur-dioxide. **Identity.** The old 2006-2013 page titled this barcode "porto messias 10 anos"; its "Produced in Portugal by V.N. De Gaia" line is prefix-generated and was not used. Open Food Facts holds the barcode as "Portwein" / brand "Porto" with no photos, which is a category word rather than a brand, so the brand was taken from the bottle itself. Two independent listings tie the barcode to this article: the Spanish importer Family Owned Wineries prints `EAN 5601292175015` in its EAN field beside "Bodega Caves Messias", and Portugal Vineyards carries it as the canonical URL slug of its Messias 10 anos Tawny Porto page (reference CVM0065, 750 ml, 20 % vol). The producer's own photograph of article 914001 shows the screen-printed front PORTO / 10 ANOS / MESSIAS / ENVELHECIDO EM CASCO under the IVDP seal, so brand/messias, not brand/porto. **Facts and sources.** Ingredients, allergens and the per-100 ml nutrition declaration come from the Portugal Vineyards page, which reproduces the label in dedicated fields rather than in prose (623 kJ / 149 kcal, 10 g carbohydrate of which 9,2 g sugars, 0 g fat, protein and salt). Technical data (20,0 % vol, 4,08 g/l total acidity, 113,0 g/l residual sugar, five Douro varieties, schistose soil, ~10 years in cask) is from the producer's own page; its linked technical-sheet PDF answers 404. Company identity is from the Caves Messias footer and contacts page (Sociedade Agrícola e Comercial dos Vinhos Messias, S.A., Mealhada) and from Racius (NIF 500253048, sociedade anónima, share capital EUR 5,250,000). **Markets.** PT sourced from Portugal Vineyards (barcode-bearing listing; its displayed price was tax-excluded and in USD, so no price was recorded) plus a derived PT row for the producer's own shop at EUR 21.95, which prints no barcode. ES sourced from Family Owned Wineries. Open Food Facts files the barcode under Germany, but countries_tags is a contributor claim and no German listing was found, so DE was left out and recorded as a gap. **Unresolved.** Family Owned Wineries prints 19 % vol against the producer's 20 % vol (recorded on the row and as a disputed gap). WineVins sells a "Porto Messias 10 Years" 0,75 l under a different barcode, 5601292175183; nothing says it is a second code for the same consumer article, so it is not a gtin alias, only a gap. GS1 prefix 5601292 has no named licensee and an unknown length, so gs1_prefix_owner is derived and no prefix was written to the company stub. No freely licensed photograph exists (Open Food Facts has none, the producer's picture is all rights reserved), so the page asks the community for one. The ingredient list and panel were read from a retailer reproducing the label rather than from a label photo, which is flagged as stale.. This is the current version.

## About <!--about-->
Porto Messias 10 Anos is a ten-year-old tawny Port, bottled at 750 ml and 20 % vol by Caves Messias, the Mealhada house that trades as Sociedade Agrícola e Comercial dos Vinhos Messias, S.A.[^maker][^contacts] A blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinto Cão, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca from the demarcated Douro is fermented, stopped with wine spirit and matured in cask for about ten years before bottling.[^maker] The dark bottle carries no paper front label: PORTO, 10 ANOS, MESSIAS and ENVELHECIDO EM CASCO are screen-printed on the glass beneath the IVDP guarantee seal.[^bottle] Roger Voss gave it 91 points in Wine Enthusiast.[^maker]
The firm was founded in 1926 by Messias Baptista and is still run by the family, ageing its Douro wine in lodges at Vila Nova de Gaia.[^fow] This barcode has identified the wine since at least 2008, when the first Barcodepedia recorded it.[^oldsite] Portugal Vineyards sells the article in Portugal and reproduces its label declaration; the Spanish importer Family Owned Wineries lists it with the barcode in its EAN field.[^pv][^fow]
