Quinta das Cerejeiras

This white Grande Reserva – Quinta das Cerejeiras showcases great aromatic complexity from an Atlantic climate, capturing the purity of the terroir.

The grapes are handpicked in perfect sanitary and ripening condition. They are completely destemmed, then gently crushed and pressed to obtain a fruity must with good acidity.

The fermentation of the must took place partially (40%) in French oak barrels, while the remaining 60% fermented in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 16–18ºC for 21 days.

Companhia Agrícola do Sanguinhal

Companhia Agrícola do Sanguinhal (CAS) was established by Abel Pereira da Fonseca in 1926 to administrate the estates that he owned in the region of Bombarral since the beginning of the century, still belonging to the same family.
He planted his first stand-alone vineyards (i.e. vines with no other fruit tree in between) aligned and wired, which was considered very innovating at the time, as there were no tractors. Vineyards were divided into plots, each planted with one sole variety (which was also new at the time). He introduced new varieties. In a separate plot at Quinta do Sanguinhal, he planted 30 different varieties to study their adaptability.
The company has undergone modernization over the past few years: vines were re-established based on traditional varieties as well as new varieties to meet market demand; wine-making and bottling facilities have experienced major investments at technological and equipment levels. The traditional ageing in French and American oak is nonetheless still used.
