A new Douro underlined by history. For many years, the tradition at Quinta de São Luiz was to paint the stone walls white. These white walls are pieces of history that are cherished to this day and underline the Douro landscape in a unique way. Pieces of history that sustain the vines and uphold the know-how of many generations. Kopke has now decided to pay homage to this exquisite terroir by bringing back the tradition of painting the stone walls white and labelling its DOC Douro wines São Luiz. It is the merging of the past with the present that confers a unique character to these wines. Taste the history of this underlined Douro.
