- Theme:In the town of Bragança, in the village of Parada de Infanções, we find the only wine produced in the area. The vineyards are centennial, free standing, over 120 years old where abound about 20 different castes. Due to the age of the vineyard and the traditional processes of grafting and grafting, it is possible to find different grape varieties in a single strain, making the winemaking process even more interesting and the final result a distinct product with a peculiar and very curious complexity
