With a total planted area of 16 ha , the Vinho Verde wines under the brands Quinta de Linhares and DR are produced with high quality grapes, carefully selected , exclusively from Quinta de Linhares vineyard.

This wine is produced from a very Portuguese variety, by the way, note that since the beginning of the 20th century, this house was the main one for the production of white wine in Minho (northern Portugal).

Usually wines produced with the Azal Branco grape in its composition usually have little intense fruity aromas, making wines very acidic, therefore, the Azal Branco monovarietals are rare. Here you have the possibility to sample or offer a rarity
