Monte do Carrapatelo - (Portugal)

Besides being a super amiable man, Luis Duarte is a living legend among Portuguese winemakers. His track record is nothing short of impressive. As a young winemaker, he learned the trade and earned his stripes at some of Portugal's best wine estates before purchasing his own vineyards in the Alentejo region. Monte do Carrapatelo was founded in 2007. This ideally oriented hill with over 10 hectares of vineyards is cultivated sustainably and with the most modern techniques. The domain quickly grew into one of the references in Alentejo. Each plot and each grape variety receives a personal approach. This has already earned Luis the title of 'Best winemaker of the year' in Portugal three times. His wines are not exclusive gems for the Happy Few, but honest and delicious wines for everyone's wallet.
