Pegoes is distinguished by a unique “Terroir” and is characterised by the combination of poor sandy soils, rich in water, with the Mediterranean climate on the proximity of the Atlantic sea.

This combination creates a perfect harmony, that brings an excellent environment to the development of these noble grapes, as indiginous and at home in Portugal as the Tempranillo is in Spain!
