Douro

In the vineyards, dozens of native grapes where planted, following organic and integrated production methods

The winery, which covers 2,000 square metres, is typical of the Douro, in that it was designed to process grapes for port and Douro wine at the same time

Divided into three sections, the winery has enjoyed considerable investment, which has enabled it to adapt and renew most processes for the coming years.

Built in 1955 and renovated in 2010, the lagares winery was designed to produce wines the old fashioned way using the convenience of modern technology,

Quinta dos Murças was totally transformed, with the first vertically planted vineyard in the Douro (1947) and the first self-vinification system ever used in the region, new ageing warehouses and a new winery

There are approximately 300 barrels of different sizes. Most noticeable are the two 8.500-litre vats to age Port Wine, twenty 550-litre barrels and thirty one 600-litre casks for ageing the old ports
