Torre do Frade is known for its wines but the true wealth comes from the integration of several business areas. Vineyard, Livestock, Forest and Cereal Production which together create an integrate and sustainable business. The Estate of Torre do Frade is located at the district of Portalegre in the High Alentejo, municipality of Monforte, parish of Santo Aleixo – a magical place marked by the passing of time. This Estate was a convent from 1384 to 1834 and then bought by our ancestors in 1839. Each step and each stone represents a secret of times.
