Its unique landscape of golden plains, cork trees, olive trees and vines, is full of history and heritage and is now strongly influenced by its proximity to the largest artificial lake in Europe, the Alqueva dam.

The Herdade do Sobroso winery is bordered by the Mendro mountain range to the north, the River Guadiana to the east and to the south, a vast plain that stretches as far as the eye can see. It is here, amongst the harmonious geography, that one can find this rich land, and it is within these surroundings that the winery is located. It is part of the DOC Vidigueira Region.
