Quinta do Crasto Vinha Maria Teresa is an exceptional red wine crafted from a single vineyard over 100 years old, planted on schist terraces above the Douro River. This 4.7-hectare field blend includes dozens of indigenous grape varieties, hand-harvested from extremely low-yielding vines—just 300 grams per plant. The grapes are carefully selected, foot-trodden in traditional lagares, and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks before aging for 20 months in new oak barrels (90% French and 10% American)
Quinta do Crasto Vinha Maria Teresa White Wine offers intense ruby color and a complex, aromatic profile with notes of wild berries, cistus flower, and elegant spice. On the palate, it shows powerful structure, fine-grained tannins, and a long, harmonious finish. Best served between 16–18 °C, it pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted red meats. Vinha Maria Teresa is a rare expression of Douro terroir and one of Quinta do Crasto’s most iconic and collectible wines.
<p></p> <p>Four young brothers from Mesão Frio joined hands to create a wine-producing company that already has 150 hectares, spread over seven farms in the Douro Demarcated Region and launched the first wine at the end of 2011.<br />Roberto, Ricardo, Rafael and Rudolfo, with 33, 29, 26 and 23 years, make up the R4 Douro Family.</p>
<p>“Quinta do Vallado, established in 1716, is one of the oldest and most famous “Quintas” in the Douro Valley”. It once belonged to the legendary Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira, and still belongs to her descendents</p> <p></p>
<p></p><p>Secret Spot is a project by Gonçalo Sousa Lopes and Rui Cunha that aims to produce wines from a single vineyard that has the potential to originate a wine of unique qualities.</p>
<p></p><p>There is a little dot in vast geography of the Douro delimiting an old family dream. It is in the little village of Muxagat. There, in the last frontier, Mapa is born.</p>
<p></p><p><span>Vale Meão Red is very concentrated in colour. Deep and complex nose with lots of aromatic nuances, yet maintaining the balance between them. In the mouth it is vibrant, in a set of great elegance, showing an excellent integration of the wood, a surprisingly large variety of flavours, and a very long aftertaste</span></p> <p></p> <p></p>
<p></p><p><span>Nuno Aguiar (winemaker, former collaborator of Anselmo Mendes) and António Olazabal Ferreira (marine biologist in accelerated conversion to winemaker) have launched a wine called Boina, the first one is from 2015 and has a very appealing aesthetic. A series of wines that the duo began to produce in the Douro and in Trás-os-Montes, under the Portugal Boutique Winery project. The brand Boina groups the wines without wood of the Douro.</span></p>
<p></p><p>Matilde Reserva Red Wine is produced from the region’s own grape varieties Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Amarela and fermented by the traditional method of treading the grapes by foot in granite tanks. It aged for 18 months in new French oak barrels. The colour is ruby and the aroma is intense and complex to black plum and fig, followed by cedar. In the mouth the wine is voluptuous and with a good acidity. Tannins are well present but very smooth, resulting in a perfect balance and long-lasting after taste.</p>
<p></p><p>The Encosta do Sobral is located in the region of Ribatejo, more precisely in the municipality of Tomar.</p>
