Like gardens, wine stirs up a wide range of sensations” Rita Cabral de Almeida! This describes the emotional approach to wine from the latest sensational female oenologist in our range from the heart of Dão, Portugal.
Rita started to plan Jardins de Granito winery 6 years ago after a long journey around the wine world, together with Vasco her husband, who as an oncologist researched the benefits and possible uses in health as a by-product of wine. The team is completed by Mafalda Magalhães who is a highly respected internationally renowned winemaker.
The Jardins do Granito is a collection where she wants to give you the 3rd dimension of a sensorial experience walking through Dão unique terroir. These wines reflect a lush garden filled with redcurrants, strawberries & eucalyptus. When you taste them you are transported to this beautiful mountain wine region.
Dão terroir is marked by the constant presence of granite. Respecting the wine tradition of Dão, “Jardim de Granito” is produced on the slopes of Silgueiros, in soils of granite origin, where the vineyard is surrounded by oak trees & pine forests.
