Quintas de Melgaço is a gathering of 530 families from the northernmost villages in Portugal, where the green landscape of the Peneda Gerês National Park blends in with the demarcated Vinho Verde region. The same green colours the hope of a group that aims for more and better wine-growing conditions for the producers of Melgaço and Monção, contributing to the socio-economic development of the region. Melgaço's Alvarinho has reinvented itself over time - in winemaking, together with other grape varieties, with new viticultural practices. Quintas de Melgaço's Alvarinho is now available in countries such as the United States of America, Brazil, Norway, Denmark and Japan, among many others. It's important for Quintas de Melgaço to also be a stimulus for other local operators: be they in the area of food, accommodation, art, among many others. Quintas de Melgaço is the most visible impression of the labour, soul and nature of a region. It's not just about wine, it's about life!
