Product Description:

"Casa Santos Lima has been a family business for many generations and was founded by Joaquim Santos Lima, who, by the turn of 19th century, was among the greatest producers and exporters of Portuguese wines. Maria João Santos Lima and José Luís Santos Lima Oliveira da Silva, granddaughter and great grandson of the founder, have been leading Casa Santos Lima since 1990, replanting most of the vines and modernizing all its productive structure.

The Casa Santos Lima Estates are situated in Alenquer, 45 km up north of Lisbon, in a region where the wine production tradition is centuries old and the typical rural landscapes appear with an enormous beauty. The vineyards re-plantation has been made at a steady pace since 1990, with the noblest Portuguese grape varieties, with a unique regional character, and also, in a smaller proportion with the best international varieties." -Winery
