Quinta de Alderiz is a property located in the municipality of Monção. A family tradition, owned by the Pinheiro family since the mid-20th century, it produces Alvarinho wine on around 12 hectares of continuous vineyards. The vineyards, with an average age of 25 years, planted in granite-clay soil, they benefit from the micro-climatic characteristics of this area of the Minho Valley to express their full potential.
There, innovation coexists with respect for tradition, for the knowledge accumulated generation after generation. It is rumoured that Joaquim Pinheiro (1910-1985), a pioneer and tireless defender of the Alvarinho variety, used to talk to the vines while he gave them the necessary treatment. A humanised and passionate relationship.
Quinta de Alderiz is yet another place that must be discovered.
