Rock-Cut Wine Presses

Vilar de Perdizes

This group of five rock-cut wine presses, carved into the granite, constitutes an important testament to the region's historic wine production. Although they are in varying states of preservation, they retain treading tanks, collecting vats, drainage channels, and cuttings for the pressing system, highlighting the importance of viticulture and winemaking in the region over the centuries.
