The Amorim family have been involved with the world of wine since 1870, when they first started producing cork stoppers for the Port Wine cellars, in Vila Nova de Gaia. Today it is one of the most renowned family groups in Portugal with businesses in many countries and many different sectors. Since 1999, the fourth generation of the family has been involved in wine, through the capable hands of Luísa Amorim, upholding profound respect for the historical heritage and the reputation of two of Portugal’s most important wine regions. In the Dão and Douro, with a total of 127 hectares of vineyards, the Amorim family solely grows indigenous grape varieties, parcel by parcel, in a practice that combines traditional processes and sophisticated technology to produce exceptional wines.
750ml mlEncruzado, also known as Salgueirinho, is an endemic white grape variety from the Dão region. Cultivated in the sheltered highlands of Taboadella’s vineyard, in granites that have metamorphosed over hundreds of thousands of years, this wine benefits from the special care required with the Encruzado grape. The delicate cultivation of the Encruzado vines requires increased attention during the growing season, delivering tremendous rewards - the wine is firm and exuberant, with a silky texture, linear structure and notable depth. It is a wine of the present and future.
