Família e vinhos 1000 Curvas

Our Story

The 1000 Curvas wine was envisioned by Armando Soares, alongside his son Rodrigo Soares and winemaker Pedro Mota.

The idea was born during the restoration of Quinta da Castanheira, an estate located in the Baião county, Northern Portugal.

The best experience we had in the Douro. The owner is so passionate and takes the time to sit down and share stories about his family. A very personal experience. The wine was also incredible.

Visita inesquecível, com uma atenção e carinho ímpares por parte da família Soares. Os vinhos são uma poesia em copo.

Wow! What an experience! We were unexpectedly welcomed by Rodrigo without an appointment. With his partner Zoé, he showed us his magnificent estate and introduced us to his exceptional wines. Thank you so much — we truly enjoyed our holiday with you. Your wines are great!

A Quinta da Castanheira é um refúgio. A natureza, a história e a hospitalidade fazem desta uma experiência única no Douro Verde.

Amazing experience. We tried several wines (more than pictured) and really enjoyed the company of Rodrigo (the owner) and his friends. A special place with a stunning view, great wine and a fantastic story. We will be back.
