Casal Sta. Maria

Located in the historic Colares region, on the slopes of the Sintra mountains, the vineyards of Casal Sta. Maria are situated in a magnificent landscape overlooking the sea, at the westernmost point of continental Europe. They were planted in 2006 by Baron Bodo von Buremmer, then 96 years old, with the intention of producing high-quality wines that express the unique terroir of the farm, which was his passion, respecting the environment and dignifying the region. The climate is markedly Mediterranean, of the oceanic subtype due to its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, with mild temperatures, fog, and humid winds from the north, which sometimes blow strongly and punish the vines. The white wines evoke the sea, very aromatic, fresh, mineral, elegant, balanced, low in alcohol, and with the particularity of having strong salty notes. These wines have great aging potential, are complex and characterful, well expressing the unique terroir .
