DO MONTALTO
The farm of Montalto, owned by the same family along
five generations, has an extension around fifty hectares
covering vineyards, olive yard, orchards and forest,
which, altogether, appear as a magnificent mosaic in
the landscape. Being part of the wide viticultural region
of Lisbon, the 15,5 hectares of vineyards planted in
clayey-chalky soil and benefiting from an excellent
solar exposure, enable the production of wines classified
as DOC Encostas D’Aire.
The farm of Montalto is situated in the central area of
the country in the region of Ourém, near Fátima. In line
with a tradition of winegrowing, several grape varieties
can be found in the farm, in particular Aragonez and
Fernão Pires, the most representative of the red and
white grapes. We can also find the Touriga Nacional,
Trincadeira, Syrah, Baga, Alicante Bouschet, Castelão,
Moreto, Sauvignon, Arinto, Rabo de Ovelha and Olho de
Lebre varieties. In addition to fruity and delicate wines
and sparkling wines, also jams, canned vegetables and
vinegars are prepared in the farm of Montalto, revealing
particular features quite different from those resulting
of the generalised massive and technological industrialization.
To obtain regional products, really genuine and with a
singular taste has been the guideline for the work and
dedication of both, the whole family and the employees
in the farm of Montalto. In a framework of full respect
towards the preservation of the environment, all cultures
in the farm of Montalto are conducted according
the Organic Farming rules with control of ECOCERT-
-PORTUGAL, that is, the use of chemical fertilizers,
herbicides, insecticides, fungicides and other synthetized
chemical products is not allowed. Because we do
not use any animal products, all our wines are suitable
for a vegetarian diet, and are registered in "The Vegan
Society", a UK-based association.
