Great Vineyard Wine Route in Douro, Portugal for Two: Fascinating Facts

The Quinta das Carvalhas has a prominent position on the left bank of the Douro River facing Pinhão. It covers the whole of the hillside facing the Douro river extends over the summit - which is crowned by the dominated Casa Redonda, a guest house visible from miles around - and occupies part of the upper slopes of the right bank of the Rio Torto. It is most certainly the largest Quinta in the whole of the Douro Region and undoubtedly the jewel of Real Companhia Velha crown.

Written reference about Carvalhas can be traced back to 1759 although was much more recently that Carvalhas was expanded to its current size of 600 hectares.
