Quinta de Lemos produces precious Dão wines. Our grapevines are nurtured by patient and loving hands. To honor our natal region, we create exclusive wines, made of indigenous Dão grape varieties. Quinta de Lemos is well hidden in the beautiful valley of the Dão,
the oldest wine producing region in Portugal. Located near Viseu, the regional capital, full of charm and with a medieval heart, the Quinta is set on the plateau of Beira Alta at an altitude of 340 m. The granite and sandy soils of the Dão valley are well protected by four big mountains, shielded from the harsh extremes of a continental climate and the humid Atlantic influences.
The name de Lemos has its origin in the Iberian peninsula. The family crest of four moons gathered in a circle symbolizes not only the four compass points explored by this Portuguese family but similarly the four mountains protecting the Quinta de Lemos within the Dao valley, and also the four wine varietals used in the Dao wines and at last the four family values of Humanity, Simplicity, Vision, and Sharing.
