Description With the aim of creating great classics in the Alentejo, the first 6 ha of vineyards were planted in 1989. Through successive trials and adaptations, Miguel Louro realized that the key to achieving his goal was a peculiar viticulture, not only with regard to the careful choice of grape varieties as well as the unusual training of the vines, mostly planted in unirrigated schist soils, with low productivity. In the current 33 ha of vineyards, the Aragonez, Alicante Bouschet, Touriga Nacional and Trincadeira, Arinto, Antão Vaz and Verdelho grape varieties reign, along with international varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Syrah or Petit Verdot.
