Six friends, one estate
In 2007, Carloto Magalhães made the first wine with grapes from the property. Friends joined him and Palato do Côa began. Today we are six partners, with our vineyard and winery in Muxagata.

At our table
We like to taste our wines with food and talk about them. At the estate, lunches and dinners also play a part in choosing our blends.

The vineyard in Muxagata
Schist soils with limestone veins, hot days and cool nights. The white varieties grow beside the stream, on plots that spend more time in the shade.

From vine to bottle
From harvest to bottle
We harvest by hand and follow each lot in the winery. Carloto Magalhães and Paulo Schreck taste the wines and decide the course of each one.

Caring for the land
Storing water, caring for the soil
Built in 2025, the reservoir stores water for the vineyard and animals. We keep vegetation between the rows; when the vines are dormant, the sheep come in.
