Since childhood, on the slopes of the Douro Valley, he has learned the trade from his grandfather and devoted his entire academic and professional career to the secrets of winemaking.
Having studied oenology in Bordeaux and Portugal, Vicente is able to combine the best of both worlds to produce extraordinary wines.
His production is carefully controlled, using only sustainable agricultural practices, with the aim of crafting remarkable wines that respect the tradition and terroir of the world’s oldest demarcated wine region.
With a 200-year history behind it, and around 250 million bottles of wine produced and sold worldwide, Vicente is a leading producer in Portugal and internationally recognized.
