Ramos-Pinto
Casa Ramos Pinto was founded by Adriano Ramos Pinto in 1880. The Ramos Pinto Winery began operating on the Brazilian market in the early 20th century and became responsible for half of the wine exported to South America within a short amount of time. Casa Ramos Pinto believes the soil of the Douro region has much to do with the quality of their wines and therefore took ownership of a number of Douro based estates for their Ramos Pinto Vineyards. Casa Ramos Pinto enforces a strict self-production policy, meaning that all Casa Ramos Pinto wines are produced with grapes from their estates. Our Ramos Pinto wine reviews indicate the majority of their non-fortified as well as port wines are produced using Touriga Nacional, Aragonês, Touriga Franca, Tinta Barroca and Tinto Cão. Our Casa Ramos Pintos ratings reference their diverse portfolio from their value Bons Ares line of wines up to their premium Duas Quintas line. In 1990, Casa Ramos Pinto became part of the Roederer Group. To learn more about these wines check our Ramos Pintos online buying guide.
