Casa de Mouraz & Antonio Lopes Ribeiro
Harmony in the vineyard!
The Casa de Mouraz vineyards are run by a lovely Portuguese couple, Sara and Antonio and is located in the Dão region, a wild terroir of pine, oak and chestnut tree forests making bed for a mix of old and young vines, and some indigenous grape types.
The line under the name of Antonio Lopes Ribeiro supplies us with bottles from the Douro and the Vinho Verde region, close to the Atlantic ocean.
