Torre de Moncorvo

Located in the south of Trás-os-Montes Northeast, Torre de Moncorvo has its origins in the Middle Ages, in the so-called Vila Velha de Santa Cruz da Vilariça. The Sabor and Douro rivers are a geographical feature of this municipality, as well as the Vilariça Valley and the Serra do Reboredo. The rugged soil, alternating between granite and schist areas, and the continental climate with harsh winters and burning summers are of great importance for the treated wine. Hence, a large area of the municipality belongs to the so-called Douro Demarcated Region and, in agricultural terms, to the Douro Superior North Agrarian Area. In terms of gastronomy, the Trás-os-Montes stew is a delicacy, as well as hunting and smoked meats. It is also known for the so-called "Moncorvo covered almonds".
