Quinta da Costa, today run by couple Miguel and Fillipa, has been in the family for six generations. It is located along the Pinhão River in the heart of the Douro in northern Portugal. The vines are located at altitudes ranging from 200 meters to 450 meters, with exposure to south-east, south, and south-west, all of them planted in slate-heavy soil.
In the seventies and eighties, the grandfather of the Miguel dedicated himself to the reconversion of the vine, expanding the area and mechanizing the vineyard. He decided to keep about three hectares of old vineyard in memory of his ancestors. It is with these old vines that they produce their best wines today.
In 2006, the Quinta passed into the hands of the Miguel, and they have been dedicated to producing the best grapes and, inevitably, the best wine ever since. Respecting tradition and looking forward is are key for QCP, and their wines teel that story.

Camille is a shooting star in Burgundy! She works alongside her partner, Canadian-born Matt Chittick, who she met while they were both working at the Domaine de Bellene in Beaune. Camille started her project in 2016 in a 20m2 garage without electricity but has quickly become one of the most prominent young winemakers in Burgundy.
While the legendary Domaine Comtes Lafon often steals the spotlight, the Lafon family has been doing exceptional work in the under-appreciated region of Mâconnais in the southern part of Burgundy for more than 20 years.
Maxime Graillot, a larger-than-life vigneron (and son of legendary winemaker Alain Graillot), has the same innovative and forward-thinking spirit as his father. In 2004, to cement the family’s name in the Northern Rhône, Maxime managed to acquire quite a few vineyards situated in the Beaumont-Monteux commune of Crozes-Hermitage.
