The Quinta do Cume wines were born on the slopes of the ancient land of Provezende, a historic village on the right bank of the Douro River in the heart of the Douro wine region, demarcated region, classified by UNESCO as World Heritage..
Jorge Tenreiro, a surgeon by profession, has always been passionate about the Douro. Provezende was chosen for the accomplishment of a dream, which brought together all the needed features for a great wine: The rugged terrain, schist soil, proximity to the water, sun exposure and ideal altitude, finally, a terroir that gives the wine unique oenological properties. Our main objective is to produce high quality wines.
Our newly built winery allows us to use all the latest technology.
The decisive choice fell on the winemaker Jean-Hugues Gros, whose training in one of the most reputed schools of oenology in Burgundy in France, which made this dream possible.
Jean-Hugues Gros, aged 44, made his learning process in various wine producing regions of the world. In 1999 the Douro was chosen to develop his professional activity. Our motto is to produce wines with passion.
