The Quinta do Mouro, an 18th-century mansion, is surrounded by a beautiful garden and surrounded by enchanting vineyards near the town of Estremoz in Alentejo, Portugal.
The owner of the Quinta, Miguel Louro, does his work with deep dedication, a lot of passion and innovative spirit - and that pays off: the wines produced here are of the highest quality and are known far beyond the borders of the region and the country.
Incidentally, before Louro, who has twice been voted winemaker of the year, devoted himself to viticulture, he was a dentist. That all changed when he bought the abandoned and dilapidated Quinta in 1989 and planted his first 6 hectares of vines. The Quinta do Mouro now has 27 hectares of chalk and slate soils, on which mainly indigenous Portuguese grape varieties grow. The grapes are harvested by hand in the traditional way and then gently crushed with the feet in the so-called lagers (large granite basins).
The wines of the Quinta do Mouro can be described as "old-fashioned" and are definitely something for connoisseurs and connoisseurs.
