The vines, a tangled maze of crooked branches, grow in the same soil from which the rice
was born. The unusual climate and sandy soil, slightly salted by the sea, is the ideal recipe
for a vineyard of almost 35 hectares (86 acres).
The vines were planted in "bacelo bravo" in 2001 and grafted the following year making
2003 the first year of production. The red grapes are Aragonez, Trincadeira, Alicante
Bouschet and Touriga France, and the white granes are Arinto and Antão Vaz.

In the village of Carvalhal e Lagoas, near Pego beach, are "Casas da Peninsula” - an example
of the rebuilding of traditional Comporta.
Wooden cabins with thatched roofs are built to fulfill the same concept but with more
comfort. Each room is a cabin: a cabin for the kitchen and living room, a cabin for the master
bedroom, a cabin for the guest room and so on. The cabins connect from the outside via a
wooden deck making awareness of the environment that much stronger.
