Quinta da Lixa is the living testimony to the passion that the Meireles Family always had for Vinho Verde.
Present in several areas of the business world, this family, that already owned vineyards located around the small village of Lixa, decides in 1986 to create a small business that would become what is now the Quinta da Lixa – Sociedade Agrícola, Lda. The results are presented by a production above 7 Million bottles per year with 55% of total production sold for 40 countries, referring to a total income higher than 14 million euros per year.
In the last ten years investments were made, more than 9 million in new properties to increase the Winery production capacity, a new bottling line with filling capacity of 9000 bottles / hour and the first Wine Hotel in the Vinho Verde region, Monverde – Wine Experience Hotel****
