The winery is certified by the Quality and Food Safety standards ISO 9001 and IFS Food, and its focus is on the improvement and promotion of Portuguese grapes varieties, mainly indigenous to the Bairrada region, such as Baga, Bical and Maria Gomes, but also Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz and Arinto, among others.

With over 1,450 medals awarded to date, the portfolio includes a wide range of wines, from entry-level offerings to premium wines, as well as Classic Method Sparkling wines, Fortified wines, and wine spirits.

The winery was listed in the World Association of Wine Writers and Journalists of Wine and Spirits ‘TOP100 Best Wine Producers in 2015’, and has been awarded 'Best Portuguese Wine Cooperative' by Portugal's three leading wine magazines in 2011, 2017 and 2019, and 'Best Sparkling Wine Producer' 2013 and 2022.
