100 Hectares
The history of 100HECTARES wines begins in the early 1970s, when the Brás e Cigarro family – with an enormous passion for the Douro region – made major investments in the purchase and renovation of properties located in the Douro sub-region – Baixo Corgo. The family farms are the origin of their wines, and production is made exclusively from grapes from their properties, something that is at the heart of the family's production philosophy. For some time, the majority of production made from their vineyards was sold to competitors in the region, but, in 2009, André and Filipe Brás wanted to monetize their own production of raw material, vinifying an estimated 30% to 40% of grape. Some surplus production is given to producers in the region, and total production with the own brand is not yet possible. The duty of passing on the legacy from generation to generation is a feeling rooted in the family.
