In the vineyard

When the Tavares da Silva family arrived at Quinta da Chocapalha, the varieties planted were intended for production and were in poor condition. Restructuring the vineyard was inevitable in order to achieve the objective of producing wines that best reflected the special terroir of this estate.

Of the 70 hectares in total, 46 are cultivated with vineyards. The Pêra Rocha orchard, occupies 4.5 hectares and the remaining space consists of various woodlands, some very old. Olive trees form a border around the property's boundaries.
