Vale da Capucha

Vale da Capucha is a family-run estate at Quinta de São José near Turcifal, with a winemaking tradition spanning several generations. From the early 2000s onwards, Pedro Marques converted the estate to quality-focused viticulture and planted around 13 hectares, mainly with Portuguese white varieties. The vineyards lie approximately eight to ten kilometres from the Atlantic, are dry-farmed and harvested by hand. In the cellar, the team works with indigenous yeasts, extended lees ageing and as few additions as possible. ([rawwine.com](https://www.rawwine.com/profile/vale-da-capucha/about?utm_source=openai))
