Valle Pradinhos

Touriga Nacional and mineral whites from Portugal's austere northeastern frontier.

Valle Pradinhos sits in Trás-os-Montes, the remote northeastern corner of Portugal where continental climate and schist soils shape wines of mineral precision and dark fruit intensity. The winery draws on Touriga Nacional, the country's signature red variety, known for its structure and black cherry character. Its flagship Touriga Nacional and Grande Reserva—a blend of Touriga Nacional with Cabernet Sauvignon—have earned recognition from Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Wine Spectator. The Lost Corner Branco, a white blend of Verdelho, Riesling, and Codega de Larinho, reflects the region's capacity for aromatic, mineral-driven whites. These wines capture the austere elegance of Transmontano terroir, where altitude and isolation produce grapes of concentrated character.
