Tenreiro family, in a temperate climate, with average annual rainfall of 650mm, and under Mediterranean clay soils. At Anta de Cima the last vines were uprooted in the 50s of the last century and, as witness, the old carved cellar still stands the test of time. In 2010, the vineyard resurfaced and in 2012 the first argilla wines, white and red, were produced.
