The snow is again in the Douro - bring the skiis, we have some nice slopes
The snow is covering the Douro valley of white. Beautiful scenario in a very cold and rainy Winter so far. At the same time, these cold temperatures are helping in the clearing of the wines. But enough is enough and also our pet thinks we don’t need more cold. Spring, we are all waiting for you…

This is definitively a very strange global warming Carrie. I don’t remember so much snow in the valley, and I’m already 26. This is probably the coldest Winter of this decade. Lets see what the Summer will bring us.
Maravillosa foto Oscar. Me estoy pensando lo de los esquís. Pero los remontes… Hay que hacerlos a pata?
Un abrazo
Efectivamente Ignacio, no hay otra opción que volver andando! De todos modos no me importaría subir andando. Lo que me ha mantenido apartado de intentarlo fue la existencia de alguna piedra mas levantada…
Quevedo was founded in 1991 as a family owned business in the heart of the Douro valley, responding to the needs of the generations that preceded the associate founders. These ancestors were passionately dedicated to their vineyards and to the culture that surrounded the production of wine. Consequently, the company was created as a seamless marriage between the initial phase of production and the promotion and selling of their wines. Currently, the estate is comprised of 100 hectares located in the regions of Cima-Corgo and Douro Superior, producing both red and port wines from only the five traditional port grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão and Tinta Barroca. 
Woww! How beautiful! We got a bit of snow flurries in the Alentejo on Sunday, but it melted as soon as it hit the ground, and today the temperature is predicted to hit +15º ! Jan 2006 we got our first snowfall in 52 years! (like in your foto). Last Jan 2009 we got another one! Global warming effects our climate in strange ways
