House of Vegetable Gardens (Baião)

Casa das Hortas is a family-run wine producer from Baião, linked to the Baião sub-region in Vinho Verde and also to the Douro. The company is publicly presented as a project initiated in 1995, associated with António Azeredo's winemaking activity as a producer and bottler. The brand offers several wines with their own distinct identity, including Portal das Hortas, Cabeça de Gaio, Vale do Gaio, and Hortas do Caseirinho.

The origin in Baião is particularly relevant to Vinho Verde, where grape varieties such as Avesso, Arinto, and Alvarinho find expression in fresh and gastronomic white wines. At the same time, Casa das Hortas communicates a strong connection with the Douro, a region present in wines such as Cabeça de Gaio and Vale do Gaio. This dual presence allows the producer to showcase distinct profiles: vibrant Vinho Verde whites, structured Douro reds, and more ambitious reserve wines.

Casa das Hortas is based in Valadares, Baião, and promotes visiting and tasting experiences, reinforcing the connection between wine, territory, and local culture. For its online store, it represents a producer with a wide range, covering entry-level choices, reserves, special formats, and higher-value wines, maintaining a coherent narrative between Baião, Vinho Verde, and Douro.
