The history of winemaking in Tras os Montes goes back centuries, with viticulture dating back to Roman times. Over the years, winemaking practices have been passed down from generation to generation, embracing the region’s unique terroir and climatic conditions.
 
Tras os Montes is characterised by its rugged terrain, ancient vineyards and diverse microclimates.

North of the Douro region, in northeastern Portugal, lies the Trás-os-Montes wine region, separated from the coast by a mountain range including the Marão and Alvão mountains. The Trás-os-Montes region is divided into three subregions, Chaves, Valpaços and Planalto Mirandês, which lie along the valleys of the rivers they intersect. The first two subregions lie in the geographical centre of the appellation, with Planalto Mirandês on the plateau of the Serra do Mogadouro, to the southwest of the region.
