Located in Northern Portugal, Manuel da Costa Carvalho Lima & Filhos Lda, also known as Vinhos Norte, bears the name of its founder who, together with his sons, officially established the company in 1971. After four decades, Vinhos Norte has become one of the main producers of Vinho Verde in Portugal, with one of the most sold wines on the national market, Cruzeiro.
Innovation and differentiation, blended with traditional values of winemaking, have always been the secret for the pro¬gress of this family business. In 2005 the company invested in a state-of-the-art winery which prompted the creation of new and singular wines.
Operating from the village of Várzea Cova, where it all began, the company embraced the third generation in 2007. Today, the main goal for the next three years is internationalization focused on strategic markets.
