Soils
The soils of our farms are characterized by being schist, thus providing a set of essential minerals and acidity. This type of soil protects the roots and maintains stable levels of humidity, which allows to obtain very aromatic wines of great quality.
This type of soil is one of the best that characterizes the Doutro demarcated region, since they help to a good drainage and the expansion of the roots of the vines in, deep.
