vineyards
All the grapes used for wine-making at the Quinta da Massorra are grown on our vines planted in the village of S. João de Fontoura in Resende, which borders the regions of the Douro and Vinho Verde.
The vines occupy 4 hectares and have different ages (between 12 and 60 years). They are also planted with differing spacing (between 3500 to 7000 vines/hectare).
For our white wines, we only opted for the grape variety Arinto. For our red wines, however, we chose Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz and Souzão.
