Located in the Corgo’s river margins, half way between Régua and Vila Real, and inside the perimeter around the vineyards that in 1756 Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo - The Marquês de Pombal - was carefully demarcated by 335 large rectangular, flat, or semi-circular granite markers – called Feitoria as the place with the highest quality wine, the only that could be exported to England, commonly known as “Port Wine” from what was the first demarcated and regulated wine region in the world.
