Description
A wooden boat owned by the Sandeman wine and port company travels along the River Douro in Porto, Portugal. Sandeman is one of the better known brands of port and sherry wines and was founded in 1790 by the brothers George and David Sandeman from Perth, Scotland. It remained a family business until the drinks company Seagram bought it in 1979. It was later sold to Diageo and Pernod Ricard then in 2001 to Sogrape; a descendant, George Thomas David Sandeman is still a board member. These wooden boats are used for tourist trips along the river rather than carrying port and wine; many companies have them.
