Casa Santos Lima Sauvignon Branco

Descrição

Casa Santos Lima, headquartered in the municipality of Alenquer, was founded in 1991 to continue the family’s wine‑making tradition that began in the late nineteenth century under Joaquim Santos Lima, then one of Portugal’s largest wine producers and exporters. Bottling of its wines started in 1996, after which the wine had been sold only in bulk. Today, with over 200 hectares of vines, Casa Santos Lima is the region’s leading producer, representing more than 30 % of Lisbon’s certified wine output. With a strong emphasis on internationalisation, the house is a major catalyst for wine export, shipping over 90 % of its wines to roughly 40 markets. (Illustrative image)
