The Producer

Quinta Alta

Quinta Alta

Douro

Oenologist
Fernanda Zuccaro Nuno Mouronho

A new force in the Douro tradition.

Quinta Alta's QALT and Zuccaro wines are the realization of the dream of Fernanda Zuccaro, who left Brazil in November 2016 to become a wine producer of Douro wines.

Fernanda, in charge of the company, was not intimidated by the harshness of the Douro. On the contrary, she was enchanted and seduced by the strength and magic of a land that only the strong can resist.

Quinta Alta harvests and vinifies the grapes from its two properties: Quinta da Longra in Moura Morta in Baixo-Corgo, overlooking the Marão, where the white and rosé wines come from, and Quinta Alta dos Álamos in Ervedosa do Douro, in Cima-Corgo, where the red wines are made.
