Lisboa - Quinta da Serradinha
It's all about character. About unique wines with a lot of personality, right? |
It is not good enough to make only technically solid wines, you have to have something that sets you apart. And I'm not talking about just terroir here. I mean, you can have the best terroir of the world, Romanée-frigging-Conti bvb, but if that does not result in your wines, you might as well plant your vineyard on a huge pile of toxic waste.
Located in the warm bosom of Mother Nature, about an hour north of Lisbon in DO Encostas D'Aire, near the city of Leiria, lies Quinta da Serradinha. The quinta embraced organic farming early. Winemaker and current capo António Marques da Cruz said that people were a bit skeptical when he and his father started converting the estate to organic farming. But now that it has become biologically mainstream, we can safely say that Quinta da Serradinha was not a bunch of hippies running around with flowers in their hair, but in fact they were pioneers in a movement that has since been practiced on a large scale.
