About this Winery

Quinta das Fontaltas, with origins in 1626, is located in Resende, on 25 hectares of a south-facing slope, opposite the Monastery of Cárquere, in the Douro Region in northern Portugal. It belonged to a Corte Real noble family but has remained in the Namora family for three centuries. In its agricultural history, the productions of wine, olive oil, fruits and vegetables stand out. After several decades of abandonment and inadvertent fallowing, the new generation, already in the XXI century, begins the recovery of the Quinta, highlighting the planting of vines in almost half the area. This vineyard has a genetic heritage of over 390 years, making its wines unique".
