Belonging to the family of Rui Roboredo Madeira for several generations, Quinta da Pedra Escrita was acquired by Rui Roboredo Madeira Vinhos in 2007.
You can find the estate at Freixo de Numão - Douro Superior, with an average altitude of 575 meters. The windy and dry soils are predominantly of granite, sandy and very poor in nutrients.
We have long dreamed of making a white wine which would capture the very essence of this unique «terroir» of the Douro Superior, because we believe that the granite soils give us wines with highly complex aromas and great longevity, like in the old times.
