Casa Santos Lima was created to ensure the continuous development of Santos Lima’s wine producing activity created several generations ago. This activity was first started by Joaquim Santos Lima, who, by the turn of 19th century, was already a great producer and exporter of Portuguese wines. Still a family owned company, today is present in the regions of Lisboa, Algarve, Alentejo, Vinho Verde and Douro.
The altitude vineyards, planted in this region between mountains and deep valleys in granitic soils originate wines of great character and elegance. Gained through generations during centuries, the local know-how allows the production of this wine made exclusively with the indigenous Jaen grape, which is called Mencía in the nearby Bierzo region of Spain. Delicate aromas with notes of wild fruit and dark pepper, it reveals a silky and well-balanced aftertaste. This is a great example of the fine wines from this region.
