Founded in 1738, in the first half of the 18th century, Quinta do Porto Nogueira was always owned by the same family until the second half of the 20th century. The current owners acquired it at the beginning of this century.

At the harvest and in the winery, we adopt a rigorous process of Choosing the Grapes that we use to produce our wines. It is a process of successive sorting that ensures that we select only the best grapes: pre-harvest picking, choosing bunches during the harvest itself, choosing bunches in the cellar and choosing berries at the table. In the fruit we use there are no greens, rotten ones, vines, insects or rubbish.

Only the best fruit is used to create our wines.

The white grapes, after being pressed, ferment in small vats. White wines age in French or American oak barrels, under fine lees, with batonnage.

The red grapes are gently crushed and macerated in lagares and fermented in small vats. Subsequently, the red wines age in French and/or American oak barrels, from the renowned cooperages Séguin Moreau and JM Gonçalves.

We only vinify our own grapes.
