Ricardo Diogo’s Mother, Manuela Vasconcelos, started working with his grandfather, Mário Barbeito, in the 70s. In 1989, he joined her and together they started a new chapter at Vinhos Barbeito. Since Malvasia was her favourite wine, he decided to make this ‘’Mãe Manuela’’ blend in her honor. He has carefully chosen wines aged for over 40 years and other much older Malvasias, some from his mother’s and some from his grandfather’s private collection.In July 2013, 1050 bottles were filled, all individually numbered.

Vinhos Barbeito was founded in 1946 by Mário Barbeito de Vasconcelos and has since then always been run by members family. Nature plays an important role in the production of their wines. They take advantage of the fact that they are aged in three distinct warehouses, all with different climatic characteristics and different sun exposers. This fact enables them to obtain an enormous variety of wines aged by the Canteiro method. All of these characteristics contribute to Barbeito's unique style: long and fresh acidity after taste.
