The winery is run by James Frost and António Maçanita, who produce organic wines on calcareous clay soil. António’s original and sometimes daring approach results in wines that are both traditional and surprisingly innovative for Portugal. The vineyards are close to the Atlantic Ocean, providing ideal conditions for the production of refined and fresh wines with a distinct character. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVineyards \u003c\/strong\u003eThe vineyards are organic and in conversion to biodynamic viticulture.
