DESCRIPTION
On the most easterly part of the Douro Superior, Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro you will find the 476 hectare estate of Colinas do Douro, an amalgamation of 5 Quintas on the Spanish border. They are at the extreme East, 400-600 metres above sea-level. Whilst vultures are circling the cliffs, some of the most challenging viticulture is taking place below.
Biodiversity & Organics are key elements of this project, with every care taken to preserve, restore and value the wildlife and natural environment; bat boxes, bird sanctuaries, reservoirs, every possible action is taken to ensure a sustainable way of life for the animals and people surrounding the winery.
