Story
"Our goal is to produce good, sincere wines, using organic and sustainable techniques and working exclusively with the grapes from our own vineyards, respecting the local biodiversity."
Alexandre Gomes comes from a long line of farmers in the Baião area of the Minho in northern Portugal, famously the home of Vinho Verde, with Baião itself especially well-known for growing the Avesso grape. In 1991, Alexandre began planting a new vineyard of just five hectares dedicated to the region's native varieties. Then in 2005 together with his wife Diana he purchased Quinta dos Espinhosos, also in Baião, supplementing that in 2015 with Quinta da Santa Teresa, where the grapes for the Monólogo and Singular wines are grown.
