To obtain lasting vineyards, we are convinced of the need to be respectful of the environment that we are giving away such a good grape. For this reason, since it was initially worked pesticide treatments using only natural and without herbicides. This requirement also applies to suppliers of grapes that complement our production. In order to certify these techniques of cultivation, our vineyards are in conversion to organic farming.

The winery building was designed by architect Roberto Valle in harmony with the environment of the cave as it did in the Castillo de Penafiel for the Wine Museum. Roberto is the architect who designed the construction of the Wine Museum and the Museum of Penafiel, home of the Roman Almenara. The design combines the white stone of the moor, characteristic of the area, cut with steel and glass on the outside with tinted concrete and wood in the interior.
