{"title":"Quinta do Sobral de Santar","description":"\u003cp\u003eBegun with sacrifice in 1995 by Nelson Simões. He arrived in Santar with a vision and very little else, annexed land year by year, reconstructed abandoned vineyards, and by 2000 had built his winery inside a granite hillside using tunnels and chambers excavated from rock. The cellars are among the Dão's most dramatic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday winemaker Patrícia Santos oversees 15 hectares of vines on the granite plateau at 388 metres. The range spans approachable estate wines through to rare single-varietal expressions of Encruzado and Malvasia Fina in forms nearly impossible to find outside Portugal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe estate's most extraordinary chapter began when granddaughter Maria discovered her grandfather's 50-year-old vineyard register after his death, within it, varieties that had since vanished from the Dão. That discovery became the Coleção Mimi do Avô.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/terraalmawines.com\/collections\/quinta-do-sobral-de-santar.oembed","provider":"Terra Alma Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
