ALTWINES

Our family has been working in viniculture and wine growing for several generations. We currently explore over 170 hectares divided in two properties in central Portugal: Quinta de S. Mateus and Quinta de Vale d’ Azar.

Situated on Quinta de S. Mateus, our new wine cellar (September 2004) produces 300.000 bottles a year. The wine is produced without any pumps at all (there’s a 18m height difference between the entrance of the grapes and the presses), it’s only used the robot pigeuer, without remontage, without using any yeasts, enzymes or bacteria.

We seek Bairrada DOC Certification for all our wines, so that we can proudly carry the name of our land, far and wide.
