Here, a pure Dão wine is born.”
Our Story
Acquired by the ancestors of the Borges da Gama family from the Earls of Santar in 1826, Quinta da Alameda is located in the most noble "terroir" of the Dão region, overlooking the town of Santar, in a landscape dominated by its imposing stone tower.
With a history that spans three centuries, in lands where vines and wine interlace since immemorial times, Quinta da Alameda is today a faithful portrait of passion for wine and nature.

Dão Region
On the immense plateau of granite soil protected by the Estrela, Montemuro and Caramulo mountains, the Dão region is one of Portugal's most noble wine regions. Being the birthplace of elegant and aristocratic wines, its vineyards carved clearings through the pine forests to develop unique and sophisticated wines.
The Dão region, celebrated for its outstanding red and white grape varieties, is where Encruzado and Touriga Nacional reach their full expression. It produces wines of incomparable freshness, elegance, texture, and minerality. With exceptional ageing potential and remarkable versatility, these wines create unforgettable gastronomic pairings.
