Rita Ferreira Marques’s family has been growing grapes in the cool Teja valley, south of the Douro River, for generations, but Conceito was born in 2005 when she produced the family’s 1st commercial vintage. Vineyards are at high elevation or 450-600m and comprised of granitic and schistose soils.
Together with Enologist, Manuel Sapage, and Viticulturist, Nuno Fernandes, they produce a stunning array of wines, some of the more traditional Douro set and others that break hard with many of those same traditions.
Certified organic.
