Family-owned business which produces the white wine Consorte made from the family's vineyard grapes. The winery, where the winemaking and bottling processes are executed, is located in the farmer house, whose construction dates back to 1890. At the pressing of the grapes, it is used an old roman-type press, that also dates back to the house’s construction period. Here we practice a minimalist kind of oenology. Environmental responsibility is ever present in the fact that our grapes are cultivated in carefully treated vineyards, according to a certified integrated production model, which greatly restricts the amount of phytopharmaceutical products in use, therefore prioritizing cultural, biotechnical and biological protection. All of this takes place in Lugar de Fundões, Castelo de Paiva.

The Memorial of Sobrado is a funerary monument composed of two vertical stones with engraved crosses that support two horizontal slabs. The upper one is rectangular while the lower one, which corresponds to a sepulchral lid, has a round surface. Legend has it that, like the Memorials of Ermida (Penafiel) and Alpendorada (Marco de Canaveses) this was one of the stops of the procession that carried the body of D. Mafalda - the granddaughter of king D. Afonso Henriques - to the monastery of Arouca. This Monument is part of the Route of the Romanesque.
