Description

TWO FAMILIES – A GREAT WINE PROJECT

The project Roquette & Cazes It is above all a meeting between two friends: Jorge Roquette from the Quinta do Crasto It is Jean-Michel Cazes of Château Lynch-Bages.

In 2002, the two families decided to create a company to produce great wines that were marked by the natural characteristics of the Douro and the experience of the Cazes who make wines in Bordeaux about a century ago.

A wine adventure
“Making a great wine with Douro grape varieties, a wine that shows structure and complexity, that has the power and sun of Portugal combined with the elegance of Bordeaux”, stated Jean-Michel Cazes within the scope of this adventure.
