Grapes used for Quinta Vale D. Maria Douro Reds come from all the oldest plots of the Quinta and that are the original 10 hectares of the Quinta. They average 60 years of age and are planted with 41 different grape varieties, among them Tinta Amarela, Rufete, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Francisca, Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Sousão, and many others. The vineyards face mainly South, however there are plots that also face South East, South West, East and West. We have divided the Quinta into separate parcels or vineyards and given them different names. All vines are treated with sustainable agriculture practices, using horsetail, organic compounds, sea weeds and nettles to prevent fungal diseases, nurture the soil and sustainably create healthier plants.
