The Madre de Água project was born in 2007 with the acquisition, by the couple Luis and Lurdes, of a property, in Serra da Estrela, with 16 hectares where there were some granite stone constructions, a 40 years old vineyard plot, many olive trees, oak trees, chestnut trees, century-old cherry trees, Glacier-era rock formations and many water wells. Over the last few years the Madre de Água project has grown, with the acquisition of other neighbouring farms, and today has an area of 60ha. Surrounded by this area we find a hotel, restaurant, horse riding arena, cheese factory, vineyard and wine cellar, olive trees and orchards (mainly of Pera rocha and apples). In this way, besides the wines, it is possible to find in the market cheeses, olive oil and jams under Madre de Água brand. In the Dão region we find some of the best national wines, with great quality and elegance, and the Madre de Água wines are an excellent example of this. The privileged location of its vineyards, surrounded by a series of hills that protect them from outside influences, give the wines unique characteristics of aroma and flavour. Currently, the vineyard of Quinta Madre de Água has 16 hectares, divided by its estates, with white and red varieties, national and foreign. The vineyards are located at 600 meters of altitude. Here we find the white varieties: Encruzado, Gouveio, Bical, Semillon and the red varieties: Tinta-Roriz, Touriga-Nacional, Jaen, Alfrocheiro, Syrah, Merlot and Carbernet Sauvignon. Madre de Água wines are very new, the first harvest to be launched was in 2015, so they are still new to many people. However, in the last 5 years it has already managed to show some of its potential and the clear bet on monovarietal wines. Available to order!
