Dão Wines

Dão Wines

We start our day with a visit to Quinta do Perdigão, located in Silgueiros, on one of the slopes of the Dão River. The Quinta do Perdigão is the most awarded estate from Dão region, nationally and internationally since 1999. Despite having a high density planting, it only produces about 21.000 liters of red wine, 5.500 liters of rosé and 4.500 liters of white wine. Lunch will be served at a local restaurant. After lunch we will continue our tour with a visit to the Quinta da Falorca , a family estate for over five generations. The wine cellar has modern facilities and is equipped with the latest technology. The stage of the wine is made either in French oak barrels or in bottle, and presently the bottle production is around 45.000. To finish our day we will visit the Paço dos Cunhas de Santar, located in the village of Santar. Built in 1609, in Italian Renaissance style, the Paços da Cunha de Santar was for generations a large estate house dedicated to the production of olive oil, fruit and wine to supply the markets of Porto. Converted into a wine tourism property in 2008, this century-old building blends perfectly modern architecture with the classic style of the region. From the vineyards of this structure come red and white wines that became top references from Dão Wine Region.
