From their vineyards in Douro Superior, around Almendra, the winemakers of CARM have been operating since the end of the nineteenth century. Their oldest vineyard was planted in 1966, and since then they have continued to expand and improve their selection of traditional varieties. With the construction of the cellar in 2004, which combines the latest technology with traditional mills, they are able to ferment the best grapes and produce outstanding wines. These wines, which are carefully matured and bottled, reflect the company's passion for the land and their respect for nature.

The Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional grapes are processed under complete temperature control. First, the grapes that are not in perfect condition are removed before complete destemming, gentle crushing and thermal shock. Pre-fermentation and cold maceration then take place in the mill for around 12 to 24 hours before the masses are transferred to barrels. Maceration then takes place in the barrels for 8 days at 22 °C, which further intensifies the aromas.
