The vineyards of this property, owned by Charles and Marta Symington, occupy a west-facing slope in a charming, sheltered valley set at a right angle to the Douro River in the Douro Superior. Cachão do Arnozelo almost borders one of the company’s largest vineyards, Quinta dos Canais, from which it is separated by a pronounced ridge.
