Description

Quinta do Cachão is located on the bank of the Douro River, in Cima Corgo, the most inhospitable, ancient, deep and beautiful region to which the river lends its name. This vineyard was planted for the first time in 1845, by Barão do Seixo , later being acquired by the Afonso Cabral family, who in turn sold it to the Messias family in 1956. In order to increase its production, Messias acquired in 1958, an adjacent property, Quinta do Rei, then owned by Gonzalez Byass.

TERROIR

Stretching across the slopes of a hill topped by a small chapel dedicated to Saint Bárbara, the Quinta currently occupies 200 hectares, half of which are cultivated with vineyards, classified as the letter A, the highest category on the Douro scale. The grape varieties planted are naturally traditional in the region, capable of producing both Port Wine and wine with the Douro Designation of Origin. Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz constitute the dominant grape varieties, followed by the Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca and Tinto Cão varieties.
