Douro

Quinta dos Poços

DOC Douro crafted from a blend of the finest barrels of GRANDE RESERVA.

At the Quinta, absolute priority is given to vineyard care to obtain excellent raw materials. In the winery, the grapes are selected on a sorting table, fully destemmed, and gently crushed. The vinification, carried out separately by grape varieties or plots, takes place in granite lagares with foot treading or in stainless steel vats with strict and individual temperature control, thus adapting fermentation temperatures to the must characteristics. High-quality French oak barrels are used for prolonged aging of 12 to 24 months. Once bottled, the wines age for an additional 6 to 12 months in the cellar before being released to the market.

Perfectly pairs with fine meats, game, and intense, characterful cheeses. Open one hour before serving.

Quinta dos Poços

Ancestral roots in the Minho and Douro Vinhateiro regions gave us the idea, when possible, to move to one of these regions, which happened in 1986. Since then, we have experienced a period of growth in the field, new plantings, modernisation of grape cultivation and must making, construction of a new winery, in short, the creation of wines of excellence. It seems obvious that this is a common and very frequent path. But in our case, it is characterised by simplicity, a sense of mission and a desire to produce well. The feeling we have is that we are doing it and that it is worth continuing, and with the help of many people we have confidence in the future. We are convinced that there are people who have the intelligence, the good taste and above all the heart to understand this work and this passion. Quinta dos Poços is located in the World Heritage area of the Douro region, in the Baixo Corgo area, in the village of Valdigem, municipality of Lamego. It is one of the oldest in the region, and the main house is a typical 18th century rural manor house. It was here that the French troops of Brigadier General Loison, the “one-armed man”, were stationed during Napoleon’s first invasion in 1808.
