Although wines have been produced at Quinta do Encontro since 1930, it was not until the year 2000, with the arrival of the Dão Sul group, that a cutting-edge winemaking project was established on the property. The initiative began with the restructuring of ten hectares of vineyards and, later, in 2005, with the construction of a stunning cylindrical winery, equipped with the latest winemaking technologies, integrated into the beautiful surroundings and open to wine tourism.
