On their 6-hectare vineyard, they make classic wines as found in the Douro. Besides being a winemaker for himself, António is a freelancer for other vineyards and Rosa manages the B\u0026amp;B. The name Teoria? That's a romantic story: Rosa and António met while studying. Teoria translates as achieving a diploma. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVineyards\u003c\/strong\u003e On the small vineyard, whose hills face south (in the direction of Pinhão), there are over 32 grape varieties. António makes his wines in the rolling landscape of the Douro Valley. Some of the vines are old, having been planted because of Rosa's father's birth in 1943. They do not work organically, but they do work without pesticides. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinification\u003c\/strong\u003e After harvesting, the grapes are foot-trodden in typical lagares. Alcoholic fermentation also takes place in the open vats.
