Quinta Alta
Here, only the strongest, most resilient and courageous resist the trials of this arid land, where the sap springs forth in the form of still and fortified wines, of an unequalled quality and recognised all over the world.
The Douro is also known for being the cradle of extraordinary women who were ahead of their time. It is therefore the ideal place for the birth of an unusual wine brand led by a woman – Fernanda Zuccaro.
QALT is the reflection of this struggling, enterprising and audacious woman who, coming from the other side of the Atlantic, wishes to ally the ancestral history of the Douro to the modernity of the new markets.
An unconditional lover of international wines, she admires above all the tenacity of the women of the Douro – whose pinnacle is D. Maria Antónia Ferreira – and for this reason, she makes a point of honouring all the women of this land with her distinctive, elegant and above all audacious wines.
Its white, rosé and red wines have already taken their first steps on the national and Brazilian markets. Now, like an odyssey of the discoveries, it wants to conquer the world!
