Also known as: Quinta da Pellada Saes, Quinta da Pellada, Álvaro Castro. The canonical producer name is Quinta de Saes.
Quinta de Saes is the home estate and winery of Álvaro Castro near Pinhanços, at the foot of Portugal’s Serra da Estrela. Castro inherited the family property in 1980 and became one of the central figures in the modern revival of Dão. Today he works with his daughter Maria Castro, continuing a family tradition while exploring the region’s indigenous varieties with unusual precision. The vineyards lie on elevated granite soils, where a protected mountain climate preserves acidity and fragrance. Quinta de Saes wines favor freshness, finesse and moderate alcohol over weight or obvious extraction. Their whites, especially those based on Encruzado, combine mineral tension with texture and an ability to develop gracefully in bottle.
