QUINTA DO

MOURÃO

Since 1999, the Mário Braga , Herdeiros Organisation,

has been developing a set of estates around Quinta

do Mourão. These estates were formed in the 18th

century, in the map of the demarcated region of the

Douro, integrated in the winemaking heritage allying

tradition to modernity.

The estates integrating this project, cumulate 120Ha

and are located between the “Baixo Corgo” and the

“Cima Corgo”, consisting in new vines (between 12

and 18 years old) and old vines (over 30 years old). In

the last few years, Quinta do Mourão has undergone

a number of changes. These range from the

restructuring of the vineyard to the modernisation of

the winery with a new cellar featuring the latest

technology, stainless steel tanks and vats to the

production of Porto and Douro wines.

The last mentioned go through an ageing process in

french oak barrels and most the fortified wines have been

stocked through the years in wooden barrels, constituting

now a patrimony of very old “generous wines”.
