XX, was based on Quinta dos Muros, a century-old property of the Mansilha family, and the Port Wine that had been produced there for 4 generations. With a vision of the future, he immediately invested in creating world-class Douro wines, being part of the first group of the new generation of Douro producers who, in good time, believed in the potential of still Douro wines.

Members of The Porto Protocol, a movement whose values are SUSTAINABILITY, OPTIMISM and SHARING through Responsibility, Collaboration and Commitment. The Mission is to promote collaborative action by bringing together a network of “doers” of change and feasible solutions in terms of climate for the world of wine, and the Vision is to have a world where companies join forces and act together to delay and change the climate changes.

In the vineyards, some of the practices used include:
> non-mobilization of the soil between the rows;
> incorporation of pruning firewood into the soil;
> non-use of residual herbicides;
> low volume flow rates when applying phytopharmaceuticals;
> increasing use of organic correctives;
> strategy of applying phytosanitary products only when the economic level of attack is reached;
> planting vineyards in a “Vinha ao Alto” system up to 40% of soil slope, and from 40 to 60% planting on terraces with a row of vines. This avoids the use of herbicides on slopes, and their height is also lower.

With the practices described, it is possible to protect auxiliary organisms, particularly those from the coccinellid family.
Also noteworthy is the reappearance of flocks of partridges in the vineyards.
