Quinta da Calçada is located in the historic center of the city of Amarante, 40 minutes from Porto. It is located in the sub-region of Amarante, in the Vinhos Verdes region, about 10 minutes from the entrance to the Douro region.
Wines have been produced at Quinta da Calçada since 1917. The origins belong to António do Lago Cerqueira, a republican, winemaker, diplomat, and the founder of Casa da Calçada.
The remarkable extension of vineyards - more than 70 hectares with varying ages that extend to the beginning of the 20th century - allows us to interpret the different terroirs. Among these lands we proudly count a heritage of the rich history of Quinta da Calçada. We are talking about a parcel of vineyard that is certified as the oldest in the Vinhos Verdes region - 0.5 hectares of extreme vineyard positioned on a single terrace.
Quinta da Calçada has always asserted itself in the production of quality wines, focusing on the interpretation of terroir wines, specializing in white wines.
At Quinta da Calçada we have a philosophy of non-intervention and respect for nature. To this end, we mainly adopt traditional winemaking techniques, and we look where possible to adapt them to a sustainability strategy. The wines are a reflection of our interpretation of the vineyards, with a focus on the consumer and the moment of consumption.
With regard to the selection of grape varieties, we remained faithful to those that define the demarcated region of Vinho Verde. They are: Alvarinho, Arinto, Azal, Loureiro and Vinhão.
We invite you to discover our wines, and the stories that have sprung up around our wines.
