Quinta do Cerrado da Porta belongs to the current owners since 1997. It was a 3 hectares property with a rural house from 17th century in very poor condition. The recovery and expansion work took about 4 years. In 1999 the first phase was finished and the owners, both doctors left Lisbon with their two teenage sons.
In the beginning only one hectare was vineyard. Since 2011 the owners expand the land and nowadays Monte do Cerrado da Porta has 17 hectares in which 14 are vineyards. The varieties grape are Chardonnay, Arinto e Moscatel Graúdo (white wine) and Pinot Noir, Touriga Nacional, Syrah, Merlot e Castelão (red wines). These were the most appropriate varieties to face strong Atlantic winds and the irregular soil. These natural conditions combined with a good management of varieties allows to produce high quality wines.
