Quinta do Vesuvio Comboio do Vesuvio Branco 2024

Owned by the Symington family, Quinta do Vesúvio stands among the Douro Valley’s most iconic and historical estates, situated deep within the rugged landscape of the Alto Douro. Its steep schist slopes rise dramatically above the river, providing high-altitude growing conditions that preserve vibrant natural freshness in the grapes. A distinctive element of estate life is the historic Douro railway line, which has serviced a dedicated station at the property since 1887, with daily trains remaining an integral part of its daily rhythms.

The Comboio de Vesúvio Branco highlights the property's contemporary approach to Douro white winemaking, combining sustainable viticulture with precise cellar practices to emphasize the pure minerality and balance of its high-elevation fruit.
