DISCOVERING WINES FROM BARCELOS IS A WAY TO ENJOY THE REGION

About vinho verde
In the municipality of Barcelos, the cultivation of vines and wine production are deeply rooted in local history and culture, being one of the arguments for the identity and differentiation of the people of Northern Portugal.

The discovery of Barcelos wines in its cellars is a way to discover and enjoy the region, as well as to interpret the culture, customs, traditions and the "modus vivendi" of the people of the municipality, in a region where time and history characterize the identity of each geographic space.

Wine is, then, a living manifestation of the talent of these people.
In Barcelos, the wine estates are committed to constant technological innovation, but they are still repositories of this unique heritage context, where the past is remembered, the present is lived and the future of vine culture, wine and wine tourism is projected.
