“The look on the past 22 years and the dreams for the future 22 years.
22 harvests, countless challenges, a certainty…the desire to express the uniqueness and originality of our terroir, show the authenticity and versatility of a region, affirm the potential of our grape varieties by showing their best, alone, or in harmony with one batch, always respecting the characteristics of each one.
A toast and thanks to You…”
Carlos Teixeira | Quinta da Lixa Winemaker
