Exciting and Characteristic Wines
They believe that the combination of their philosophy, the terroir of Lisboa’s Montejunto mountain range and on-site grape and wine production and bottling, allows for the creation of exciting and characteristic wines. Red grapes form 80% of the total area and mainly include Trincadeira, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Syrah, Castelao, Merlot, Aragones, and Alicante Bouschet. The white wine varieties are Fernao Pires, Arinto, Chardonnay, and Seara Nova. The workers handpick the best grapes and use them to make quality red, white, rose, and sparkling wines. Depending on the weather and other conditions, the harvest is carried out at night. The low temperature helps the grapes retain their natural fruity taste. The owners respect the natural resources given to them by nature and proudly transform them into their wines.
